Acrodermatitis enteropathica-like eruption association with parenteral nutrition.
This is a case report of a patient with acrodermatitis enteropathica-like eruption that occurred during parenteral nutrition. The skin lesions were similar to those of acrodermatitis enteropathica, but there were no other major symptoms such as diarrhea and alopecia. It was noticed that the lack of linoleic acid in the diet might be the cause of lesions.
