Resumen
CARBALLIDO LIAS, Caridad; DARIAS DOMINGUEZ, Cristy y FERNANDEZ BAEZ, Adriana. Herpes-kind dermatitis. Presentation of a case. Rev. Med. Electrón. [online]. 2013, vol.35, n.2, pp. 201-207. ISSN 1684-1824.
We describe the herpes-kind dermatitis like a chronic blistery dermatosis that can appear at any age. Its frequency ranges from 10 to 39 per 100 000 persons, being less frequent in children. The herpes-kind dermatitis is characterized by a bullous blistery rash accompanied by an intense pruritus. We present the case of a male patient aged 2 years with an outbreak of herpes-kind vesical blistery lesions, and evolution of a month. We indicated a treatment of 2mg/kg a day dapsone, obtaining an excellent answer to the treatment. The scientific importance of the case is in the patient´s age, because of the disease´s scarce incidence in infantile ages, in the clinical diagnosis and the fast answer to the indicated treatment.
