          Abstract

          A 7-day-old premature female infant presented with rapidly progressive, erythematous, annular skin lesions from the 5 th day of life. She was diagnosed provisionally as a case of neonatal lupus erythematosus and was investigated accordingly. Histopathological examination of the skin biopsy specimen revealed presence of hyphae of dermatophytes in the stratum corneum, and the diagnosis was changed to tinea corporis. Differential diagnosis of the annular erythema of infancy has been discussed and the importance of scraping a scaly lesion for KOH preparation in the diagnostic work-up of such a patient has been highlighted.

          Acute annular urticaria in infants and children.

          L Tamayo-Sanchez, R Ruiz-Maldonado, A Laterza (2015)
          Characteristic features of acute annular urticaria in 34 infants and small children were large, erythematous annular and polycyclic lesions with violaceous centers, eyelid, hand, and foot edema, absence of angioedema of the airway, absence of pruritus, spontaneous resolution in 8 to 10 days, and frequent history of furazolidone medication for diarrhea. Nondermatologists often misdiagnose acute annular urticaria as erythema multiforme and unnecessarily overtreat patients. The differential diagnosis with other conditions presenting with annular lesions in children is discussed.

            Erythema gyratum atrophicans transiens neonatale: a variant of cutaneous neonatal lupus erythematosus.

            A Alomar, Diego Moreno-Fernández, Miguel de la Guardia … (1988)
            We cared for a patient with neonatal lupus erythematosus with cutaneous and hepatic involvement that was clinically and histologically indistinguishable from erythema gyratum atrophicans transiens neonatale, an entity described by Gianotti and Ermacora in 1975, which we consider to be a subtype of cutaneous neonatal lupus erythematosus. The differential diagnosis of any annular erythema in the newborn requires careful clinicopathologic evaluation, with direct immunofluorescence studies and determination of anti-Ro/SS-A, anti-La/SS-B, and anti-nRNP antibodies in both the baby and the mother.
