TI  - Febrile ulceronecrotic Mucha-Habermann disease with extensive skin necrosis in 
      intertriginous areas.
PG  - 493-6
AB  - Febrile ulceronecrotic Mucha-Habermann disease (FUMHD) is a severe variant of 
      pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta characterized by high fever and 
      papulonecrotic skin lesions. Here we report a case of a 14-year-old boy with 
      typical features of FUMHD and unusual manifestation of extensive skin necrosis in 
      intertriginous regions including axillae, neck, inguinal and antecubital areas. 
      Systemic administration of corticosteroid and erythromycin led to rapid healing 
      of ulcerations without residual scar formation. Review of the literature showed 
      male-predominance and favorable outcome in pediatric cases of FUMHD.
