Abstract

The authors present a case of a 44-year-old patient with a disseminated dermatosis diagnosed as acanthosis nigricans. The patient was a smoker and investigation of the cause of her skin lesions resulted in discovery of an asymptomatic metastatic carcinoma in the laryngopharanx, probably of pulmonary origin.
