Abstract
|
|
|
A case of impetigo herpetiformis occurring in a 25-year-old multigravida woman is reported. Superficial grouped pustules on an erythematous base developed on the flexual areas of both extremities and disseminated all over the body with mild
pruritus,
fever and burning sensation at her 14 th weeks of pregnancy.
Histopathologic finding showed acanthosis and subcorneal spongiform pustule. All lesions had gradually improved within 2 weeks after artificial abortion.
Our case demonstrates the characteristic features of impetigo herpetiformis, as compared with pustular psoriasis.
This, we emphasize the need to preserve it as a separate entity.
