Eczema craquelé as a pointer of internal malignancy--a case report.
A case of eczema craquelé associated with gastric adenocarcinoma is reported. There are localized and generalized forms of eczema craquelé, the generalized forms differing from the localized types because they can be signs of metabolic or internal disease such as cancer. The patterns of the condition are reviewed based on the literature and personal observations.
