ABSTRACT

Pityriasis rosea is a common skin condition that presents acutely with asymptomatic, scaly and oval plaques, usually in a well-recognised distribution over the trunk. Two men developed ovoid, scaly and annular lesions limited to the radiotherapy field during treatment for pelvic malignancies and without a preceding herald patch. Other causes of the eruption were excluded on clinical and pathological grounds and the histopathological features were consistent with a pityriasis rosea-like eruption. In both cases the lesions resolved spontaneously by 8 weeks. These are the first reported cases of a localised pityriasis rosea-like eruption arising during radiotherapy.
