SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
We describe a rare case of a patient with pancreatic adenocarcinoma who presented initially with a rash on her lower legs. Skin biopsy showed lobular panniculitis and characteristic "ghost" adipocytes consistent with pancreatitic panniculitis. This clinical case is an interesting example where a seemingly innocuous skin condition heralds an underlying malignant disease process.
