Abstract
Greenish staining of human skin may result from a gamut of causes, such as chlorosis, exogenous copper, resolving ecchymosis, drugs, green textile dyes, green tattoos, apocrine and eccrine chromhidrosis, hyper biliverdinemia, chloromas, use of green dyes during tube feeding in patient with multiorgan failure, Pseudomonas infections, and Wells' syndrome in its second stage.
