Abstract
• We describe a patient who developed hyperkeratotic, verrucous plaques at sites of repeated insulin injections. One similar case has previously been reported. This phenomenon may be an unusual manifestation of the trophic actions of insulin. (Arch Dermatol: 122:1054-1056)This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
