Eosinophilic annular erythema in childhood - Case report

Abstract: Eosinophilic annular erythema is a rare, benign, recurrent disease, clinically characterized by persistent, annular, erythematous lesions, revealing histopathologically perivascular infiltrates with abundant eosinophils. This report describes an unusual case of eosinophilic annular erythema in a 3-year-old female, requiring sustained doses of hydroxychloroquine to be adequately controlled.

This rare condition, with fewer than 30 reports in the literature, is characterized by a relapsing‐remitting course of persistent annular and figurate urticarial plaques predominantly affecting the trunk and proximal extremities . Lesions resolve spontaneously after months to years and heal with no residual atrophy or scarring, although most reported patients exhibit recurrence …”
