Well-recognized side-effects include dose- limiting neutropenia, fluid retention, myalgia, neuropathy, hypersensitivity reaction, alopecia, mucositis, nail changes and cutaneous reactions such as acral erythema. We describe a unique docetaxel-induced cutaneous reaction presenting as fixed erythematous plaque(s) unrelated to extravasation or previous skin injury; histopathological studies were performed in three of the four cases.[SDGs]SDG3docetaxel; advanced cancer; alopecia; article; breast carcinoma; case report; drug hypersensitivity; drug induced disease; erythrodysesthesia; female; fluid retention; human; human tissue; lung adenocarcinoma; lung non small cell cancer; male; mucosa inflammation; myalgia; neutropenia; ovary carcinoma; priority journal; skin defect; Adult; Antineoplastic Agents, Phytogenic; Drug Eruptions; Erythema; Female; Humans; Injections, Intravenous; Male; Middle Aged; Paclitaxel; Paresthesiajournal article10.1046/j.1365-2133.2000.03432.x107922382-s2.0-0034100326
