    <abstract locale="en_US">Letrozole, a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor, is the adjuvant endocrine treatment for postmenopausal women 
with estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer. Erythema nodosum (EN) is a rare skin adverse effect of letrozole 
which has been previously reported in a few case reports. We report a new case of EN-induced by letrozole in 
a 63-year-old Iranian woman with left breast cancer who was estrogen receptor-positive. Physical examination 
and laboratory findings were consistent with EN. Manifestations resolved following discontinuation of 
letrozole and treatment with oral prednisolone. This case highlights EN as a potential adverse effect of letrozole. 
Clinicians should be aware of this rare but significant reaction, as early recognition and discontinuation of the 
offending agent can lead to complete resolution of symptoms.</abstract>
