Article: Herpes associated erythema multiforme annularis concentricum
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A young man had large, concentric plaques over the back and extensors of forearms for eight weeks. Past history suggested recurrent herpes labialis. Serum anti HSV-1 IgG titre was raised to 32 micrograms/l and histopathology of an active lesion suggested erythema multiforme. Symptomatic treatment and oral zinc therapy subsided EM lesions but concentric depigmentation developed after healingIndian Journal of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprology. 01/1995;
