Abstract: An 11-year-old girl was referred in June 2022 due to a cutaneous erythema that had persisted more than 9 months. She was a French schoolchild who lived with her parents in the northern suburbs of Paris. There was no history of travel, comorbidities, or infestation among other family members. She had used a moisturizing cream and an anti-acne cream over the past 9 months. The child was in a good general condition. Initial physical examination of the patient revealed a cutaneous erythema on the nose and a hordeolum, along with pustule-like skin rashes on the face and nose (Figure 1A).
