title: [Cutaneous manifestations of disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome. Apropos of 7 cases].
abstract: Seven cases of DIC with cutaneous manifestations which permitted us to make the diagnosis. Etiopathogenic references are cited and the dermatological literature pointing out especially the cutaneous lesions with their clinical characteristics: ecchymoses which usually evolve to necrosis, bullae, petechiae, hematomas, cyanosis and bleeding at injection sites, and histological: Fibrinous thrombosis of the vessels of the dermis, with hemorrhages, necrosis and dermoepidermic bullae, with slight or no inflammation . In some of these cases the dermatological lesions antedated the characteristic laboratory data.
