Abstract
A localized skin reaction occurred within 4 weeks following IV adminstration of mitomycin C and 5‐FU. Erythematous papules appeared proximal to the forearm site used for drug administration that histologically resembled an erythema multiforme‐like drug reaction. A localized hypersensitivity reaction to mitomycin C is suspected.Keywords
