PURPOSE: Hydroxyurea is a treatment of myeloproliferative syndromes. Its cutaneous side-effects are underestimated, because they are usually benign. We undertook a prospective study to evaluate their frequency.
METHODS: During a 2-year period, all patients taking hydroxyurea for more than 6 months who had consultations at the dermatology department were systematically examined, regarding cutaneous side effects.
RESULTS: Twenty-six patients were examined. All but one had cutaneous side-effects, including dryness (n = 16), moderate alopecia (n = 2), increased skin pigmentation (n = 5), melanonychia, single (n = 1) or multiple (n = 7), cutaneous atrophy (n = 4), leg ulcers (n = 8), plantar keratoderma (n = 3), pseudodermatomyositis (n = 1), lichen planus-like eruption on the dorsum of the hands (n = 2), actinic keratosis (n = 8), squamous cell carcinomas (n = 2), and mouth ulcerations (n = 1).
CONCLUSION: This study shows that the frequency of hydroxyurea cutaneous side-effects diagnosed in 95% of studied patients is underestimated. They are usually benign, but some of them, in particular leg ulcers and squamous cell carcinomas, lead to modification of the treatment (39% of studied patients).
