Necrolytic acral erythema: response to combination therapy with interferon and ribavirin.

Necrolytic acral erythema is a papulosquamous and sometimes vesiculobullous eruption bearing clinical and histologic similarity to other necrolytic erythemas such as necrolytic migratory erythema, pseudoglucagonoma, and nutritional deficiency syndromes. Necrolytic acral erythema is distinguished by its association with hepatitis C infection and its predominantly acral distribution.
