Childhood Pityriasis rosea inversa without Herald Patch Mimicking Cutaneous Mastocytosis.
[cutaneous mastocytosis]
Pityriasis
rosea
is
a
self-
limited
inflammatory
condition
of
the
skin
that
mostly
affects
young
adults
.
Several
less
common
atypical
presentations
have
been
reported
.
A
6
-
year
old
girl
with
red
-
brown
maculopapular
eruption
sized
0
,
5
-
1
cm
in
diameter
localized
on
neck
,
trunk
and
popliteal
region
visited
our
general
pediatric
outpatient
clinic
.
The
eruption
was
wide
spread
especially
on
flexural
areas
.
After
consulting
dermatologist
skin
biopsy
was
performed
.
According
to
clinical
and
histopathological
findings
as
inverse
(
flexural
)
pityriasis
rosea
was
diagnosed
.
For
treatment
,
systemic
antihistamine
,
topical
corticosteroid
cream
and
emollient
were
applied
.
The
lesions
healed
in
two
months
.
Spontaneous
healing
of
the
eruption
also
confirmed
the
diagnosis
of
pityriasis
rosea
.
We
present
this
interesting
pediatric
case
to
show
and
discuss
pityriasis
rosea
,
atypical
presentations
,
differential
diagnosis
and
the
importance
of
dermatological
examination
and
importance
of
dermatologic
consultation
for
pediatric
patients
with
skin
eruption
.
