Paraviral bullous eruption in a 7‐year‐old child during acute Epstein–Barr virus infection: A case report

Abstract

Key Clinical MessageWe present the case of a child developing widespread vesicle‐bullous lesions during an acute and symptomatic Epstein–Barr Virus infection. Antibody serology, biopsy, and direct immunofluorescence allowed the diagnosis of a paraviral bullous eruption. To our knowledge, this is the first report of bullous eruption following Epstein–Barr virus infection in childhood.
