Sirolimus is an immunosuppressive macrolide with antineoplasic properties that is increasingly used in posttransplantation immunosuppression. The treatment is frequently associated with cutaneous side effects such as sirolimus-associated acneiform facial dermatitis, which has been observed in up to 50% of treated patients. We report a 51-year-old female with liver transplantation who developed inflammatory papules and nodules on the face and the upper chest 3 weeks after the initiation of sirolimus therapy.
