Bureau-Barrière syndrome (BBS) describes a rare destructive process affecting skin and bone resulting from an acquired unilateral or bilateral polyneuropathy. Clinically, it is characterized by a triad of symptoms, namely, acral ulcerations, polyneuropathy, and bone lesions. To date, the development of Marjolin’s ulcer in the course of BBS has not been described to the authors’ knowledge.
