Summary

In neurological clinical practice, Parkinson’s disease (PD) is commonly associated with a variety of dermatological disorders, such as seborrheic dermatitis, rosacea, bullous pemphigoid, skin cancer and melanoma, as well as sweating dysfunction. The recognition, diagnosis, and therapeutic approaches of these characteristic skin disorders affecting PD patients are important for the clinician and may even be life-saving, considering the relatively higher incidence of malignant skin tumors in PD patients.
