Temozolomide-induced inflammation of disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis

Abstract

We report a case of temozolomide (TMZ)-induced inflammation of disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis (DSAP), an uncommon and pre-malignant cutaneous disorder. Dermatologists and oncologists should be aware of this cutaneous eruption of DSAP associated with TMZ to prevent the discontinuation of effective medical therapy in cancer patients.
