S ummary The case histories of three adult patients are presented. Malignant disease was present in all three. During the course of investigation and treatment one patient was found to have a lymphoma, another to have polymorphic reticulosis and the third had been under treatment for chronic myeloid leukaemia. The possible aetiological factors responsible for this clinical syndrome are discussed.
