Question: are skin problems related to the liver?
Answer: Chronic liver disease of any origin can cause typical skin findings. Jaundice, spider nevi, leuconychia and fin- ger clubbing are well known features (Figures 1 a, b and 2). Palmar erythema, “paper-money” skin (Figure 3), ro- sacea and rhinophyma are common but often overlooked by the busy practitioner.
