Atypical erythema toxicum neonatorum of delayed onset in a term infant.
Pediatric Dermatology 1999 March
We describe a 10-day-old term infant who presented to the emergency room with an acute pustular eruption. Laboratory tests and clinical outcome confirmed the diagnosis of erythema toxicum neonatorum. A full septic workup was performed and all cultures were negative. Wright-stained smear of pustular contents showed a predominance of neutrophils with 10% eosinophils. The white blood cell count was 19,000/mm3 with 10% eosinophils. The eruption resolved spontaneously at 15 days of age leaving no sequelae. This is the first fully documented case of erythema toxicum in a term infant occurring as late as 10 days of age. When erythema toxicum presents in an atypical fashion, diagnostic tests are important to exclude other causes of pustular dermatoses of the neonate.
