BACKGROUND: Skin tags are dermatological lesions commonly found in the general population and have been associated with diabetes mellitus, obesity, insulin resistance and atherosclerosis. Early detection of patients with insulin resistance may play an important preventive role. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between skin tags in the neck or axillary regions and insulin resistance. METHODS: A cross-sectional study involving adult patients receiving care at a university teaching hospital.
Skin tags, or acrochordons, are benign skin growths that project from the surrounding skin area and hang from a slender skin stalk. Skin tags are common, harmless and noncancerous; they may appear on the neck, under the arm pit, beneath the breast, on the back, chest or around the eyes. Skin tags vary in size from 1 mm to 1 cm, though may also be the size of a grape. As of 2010, there is no definitive answer as to what causes skin tags. Skin tags may develop around the eyes due to folds around the eyes and frequent rubbing of the area which causes skin irritation.
