Abstract

Erythema multiforme is an immune-mediated mucocutaneous disorder. Mucosal involvement usually affects the oral region, the genitals or the eyes. We report a case of esophagitis caused by erythema multiforme in a patient diagnosed with lung cancer. Esophageal manifestation in erythema multiforme is rarely seen. Besides esophagitis it can lead to esophageal strictures. Erythema multiforme is mostly triggered by infection or drugs but the association with malignancy has been described.
