Pemetrexed-Associated Pseudocellulitis: A Case Report
A clinical presentation of unilateral lower extremity edema, pain, and erythema is commonly diagnosed and treated as cellulitis in the inpatient setting. However, for patients with cancer, the differential diagnosis is broader. Here, we describe a case of chemotherapy-related acute lipodermatosclerosis-like eruption that was originally mistaken as cellulitis.
