ABSTRACT

Background: the Gianotti-Crosti syndrome, also known as popular acrodermatitis of childhood, is an uncommon rash that usually occurs in children between 1 and 6 years old. Given that these patients are usually brought to their pediatrician, it is essential to know the characteristics of this syndrome.
Objective: to show a patient with Gianotti-Crosti syndrome or popular acrodermatitis of childhood.
Case report: an 18-month-old female patient, with asymptomatic papulo-vesicular reaction, symmetrically distributed on the face, buttocks and extensor surfaces of the extremities, preceded by fever. It lasted two weeks and disappeared without treatment.
Conclusions: the entity should be suspected in children between 1 and 6 years old with asymptomatic papulo-vesicular eruption, symmetrically distributed on the face, buttocks and extensor surfaces of the extremities, asymptomatic and self-limited.
