ABSTRACT
The authors report a case of Mucha-Habermann disease in childhood. Mucha-Habermann disease is not a very well known, though not infrequent, disease. It is characterized by recurrent erythematous-papular-vesicular skin lesions associated with arthralgia or arthritis or large joints. Prognosis is generally favourable although an evolution towards Pityriasis Lichenoides Chronica and/or Mycosis Fungoides is possible. There are not specific laboratory findings for this form. Diagnosis is essentially based on histology showing an immunopathogenetic vasculitis. At the present time there is not a safe therapy for the disease; there are however indications for the use of Erythromycin and we followed these in our therapy with positive results.
