title: [Dermatological reactions in patients in antineoplastic therapy].
abstract: Every year more than 33,000 Danish patients are treated with traditional chemotherapy or targeted therapy against cancer. Cutaneous side effects to these therapies are common and may contribute significantly to the morbidity, but rarely to the mortality of the patients undergoing these treatments. We present the most classical types of drug rashes associated with antineoplastic therapy. Haematologists, oncologists and dermatologists should be aware of these reactions and early recognition and management is important for providing optimal care.
