ABSTRACT

The Asymmetric periflexural exanthem of childhood is an infrequent pathology, unknown and scarcely described; although it was defined more than five decades ago, there are few reports and research on the subject, which is why its ethiopathogenesis is still unknown, and its diagnosis is challenging. However, the clinical characteristic of the disease, its evolution and its self-limited property allows it to be recognized. We present a case report in a girl of 1 year and 6 months of age and her weekly evolution until her self-limitation.
