title: [Between dermatoses and enteropathies].
abstract: A series of gastro-intestinal diseases exhibits some connection with various cutaneous lesions. Some skin manifestations are clinically or histologically evocative, while others lack specificity. These manifestations can occur in overt digestive disease or be the clue for a silent one. A careful skin examination can thus reveal some inflammatory or neoplastic diseases of the gastro-intestinal tract, a malabsorption syndrome or food intolerance.
