Abstract
To the Editor: A 66-year-old man presented with peculiar skin lesions on the right side of his face, chest wall, and scrotum of 2 days' duration. He had been a chronic alcohol abuser for the past 40 years. Three days before admission, he went mountain hiking, had an alcoholic binge, and slept in a right lateral decubitus position. The next morning, he awoke to find the skin lesions and admitted himself to the emergency department. He had been taking diltiazem and nitrate for stable angina. Physical examination revealed well-demarcated, erythematous, swollen plaques on the right side of the cheek, neck, chest wall, arm, and scrotum.
