Captopril-induced lichenoid eruption.
The case of a patient who developed remarkably extensive tumid nodules and plaques in a cobblestone pattern on the extensor aspects of the limbs is reported as a late presentation of captopril-induced lichenoid eruption. The severity and chronicity of our patient's symptoms and signs reflected delay in reaching the diagnosis.
