Erythroderma is a rare clinical entity characterized by generalized erythema affecting the whole or most of the body's skin surface. It is associated with a variety of underlying conditions, including preexisting dermatoses, infections, connective tissue disorders, drugs, malignancies, or it may be idiopathic. A case of a 73-year-old man, with a 5-month history of erythroderma, eventually diagnosed with small cell lung cancer is presented. This is the first reported case indicating an association between erythroderma and small cell lung cancer, extending, thus, current knowledge regarding small cell lung cancer-related paraneoplastic manifestations as well as erythroderma's causative factors.
红皮病是一种罕见的临床病症，其特征为全身性红斑累及全身或大部分皮肤表面。它与多种潜在疾病相关，包括原有皮肤病、感染、结缔组织疾病、药物、恶性肿瘤，也可能是特发性的。本文报告了一例 73 岁男性，5 个月前出现红皮病，最终诊断为小细胞肺癌。这是首例报道的红皮病与小细胞肺癌相关的病例，扩展了我们对小细胞肺癌相关副肿瘤表现以及红皮病病因的认识。
