![Cutaneous eruption of lymphocyte recovery : Fever, Erythema, Pruritus, 6 to 21 days after chemotherapy nadir](/visualdx/sympticonswm/177.png?r=d2000eba4)
The pathophysiology of ELR is unclear, although it is postulated that it may be due to defective suppression of lymphocytes during rapid immunologic reconstitution or the preferential migration of T-lymphocytes to the skin to re-establish skin-associated lymphoid tissue.
