Abstract
Pityriasis lichenoides (PL) is a spectrum of inflammatory skin diseases which include PL et varioliformis acuta (PLEVA) and PL chronica (PLC) as two ends of the disease and rarely both entities can coexist on the same patient. Treatment options are based on case series-reports, and anecdotes, and include topical corticosteroids, topical immunomodulators, systemic antibiotics (tetracycline, erythromycin), and phototherapy. Herein, we report a 13-year-old boy, exhibiting mixed manifestations of PLEVA and PLC lesions concurrently, with a rapid and dramatic response to azithromycin monotherapy.
