Overview
Glucagonoma was first described in 1942 by Becker. In 1966, McGavran was the first to report a case of hyperglucagonemia associated with cutaneous changes. In 1970, Wilkinson described the typical skin eruption in glucagonoma as necrolytic migratory erythema.
Historical Perspective
- In 1942, glucagonoma was first described by Becker.
- Between 1942 and 1966, many authors tried to make associations between high level of glucagon and skin eruptions.
- In 1966, The first well-documented case of glucagonoma was reported by McGavran in a female with skin lesions and glucose intolerance. The author was the first to describe a correlation between skin lesions and islet-cell tumors.[1]
- In 1970, Wilkinson described the typical skin eruption in glucagonoma as necrolytic migratory erythema.[1]
