Abstract
Skin changes associated with internal malignancy have been referred to as dermadromes. We report a rare case of a paraneoplastic dermatosis manifesting as an itchy alopecia associated with gastric carcinoma with abdominal skin and ovarian metastases as the initial presenting features of the visceral cancer. We describe the diagnostic sequence of a patient with dermadromes prior to detection of the gastric cancer.
