Summary We have reported two further cases of metastatic Crohn's disease (MC), one of whom presented with a widespread symmetrical perifollicular papular eruption on the arms and legs not previously reported. In view of the varied clinical appearances the incidence may be underestimated and consequently we feel that more patients with Crohn's disease who develop skin lesions should be biopsied.
