title: Halo dermatitis around tumours.
abstract: Circular dermatitis around different benign or malignant lesions were examined in 19 patients. The morphological picture was the same whether it occurred around an acquired naevus cell naevus, a congenital naevus cell naevus, a seborrheic keratosis, a stucco-keratosis, a keloid, a benign lentigo, an insect bite, a basal cell carcinoma, or a squamous cell carcinoma. The central lesions were macroscopically unaffected by the surrounding inflammation.
