Flagellate erythema induced by bleomycin toxicity.

Abstract
Bleomycin is a chemotherapeutic antibiotic used in various malignancies. Its toxicity is mainly lung and skin with marrow sparing effect. Here we would like to describe a characteristic skin reaction developed because of bleomycin in a case of intracranial germ cell tumor. Flagellate erythema which is a self-limiting toxic reaction can cause residual hyperpigmentation.
