ABSTRACT
Juvenile spring eruption is a distinctive idiopathic photodermatoses, characterized by the appearance of a self-limited outbreak erythematous papules
and vesicles on the light-exposed helix of the ears. It occurs after sun exposure, usually at the beginning of spring, especially in male adolescents and
young adults. We report a case of juvenile spring eruption in a child of 9 years, treated at the primare care from a rural area.
