Methotrexate-induced papular eruption

Methotrexate-induced papular eruption appears in patients being treated with methotrexate, such as those with rheumatic disease, presenting with erythematous indurated papules, usually located on the proximal extremities.^[1]

It has been suggested that it may represent a cutaneous small-vessel vasculitis.^[2]
