[Vascular spiders, palmar erythema and Dupuytren's contracture in alcoholic hepatic cirrhosis. Clinical-statistical contribution].
Vascular spiders, palmar erythema and Dupuytren's contracture had been studied in four groups of patients with alcoholic cirrhosis, hepatic alcoholic involvement without cirrhosis, alcoholism without hepatic involvement, extrahepatic diseases without alcoholism. these cutaneous lesions had been observed more frequently in alcoholic cirrhosis, with an incidence of 72%, 38%, 24% respectively. Vascular spiders, palmar erythema and Dupuytren's contracture appeared related to the hepatic involvement from alcoholism rather than to the alcoholism by oneself. In the alcoholic cirrhosis the Dupuytren's contracture affected patients younger than those of the others groups and had been influenced from the association of diabetes mellitus, but not from the occupational activity.
