title: Bazex paraneoplastic acrokeratosis: a case report and response to Tigason.
abstract: A clinically typical case of Bazex acrokeratosis neoplastica is presented. This case is unusual in that the syndrome developed two years after a neoplasm was diagnosed. Almost complete clinical clearance was obtained with oral Tigason, making it the first recorded case to improve without removal of the underlying neoplasm.
