Abstract
Summary.— Eleven children have shown similar changes on the facial skin. A bright malar flush was accompanied at times by small superficial papules, pustules and scaling. The clinical picture was variable, sometimes closely resembling rosacea and sometimes peri-oral dermatitis, taking an average of 1 year to clear. Seven of the 11 children had a family history of atopy, and 2 had a family history of rosacea. Potent topical corticosteroids may have played a role in the cause of these children's rash and, on withdrawal, there was sometimes a pustular exacerbation. The relationship to rosacea and peri-oral dermatitis is discussed.
