Multiple telangiectases preceding the appearance of undifferentiated bronchogenic carcinoma. 1982

M Ochshorn, and B Ilie, and I Blum

A patient with undifferentiated bronchogenic carcinoma, which was preceded by skin manifestations, namely telangiectases on the palms, soles, fingers, toes, lips and tongue, is described. It is possible that these multiple vascular lesions are one of the cutaneous markers of internal malignancy.
