[How I explore...A patient with palmar erythema].
Palmar erythema occurs in a series of physiological and pathological conditions. The first group encompasses hereditary and idiopathic conditions, as well as the time of pregnancy and ageing. The pathological states include some dermatoses as well as hepatic, autoimmune, infectious and paraneoplastic conditions. Medications may also be responsible for palmar erythema, in particular some chemotherapy agents.
