Abstract
- Eruptive xanthomas are skin manifestations associated with hypertriglyceridemia. Accordingly, the improvement of hypertriglyceridemia can ameliorate this condition. We report a case of a patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus who was diagnosed with this skin lesion. Clinicians should be aware that eruptive xanthomas could indicate metabolic disorders associated with atherosclerosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
