Abstract
POEMS syndrome is a multi-system disorder characterized by polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, the presence of monoclonal protein and skin changes. We describe a case with scleroderma and angiomatous vascular proliferation as skin alterations which may be involved in this syndrome.This publication has 15 references indexed in Scilit:
