Abstract
Human parvovirus B19 typically causes erythema infectiosum, but unusual exanthems and hemorrhagic manifestations, such as purpuric-petechial rashes, have also been reported. PVB19-associated purpuric-petechial eruption (PAPPE) should be recognized as a distinct clinical feature of primary parvovirus B19 infection and considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with febrile purpura. This report aims to highlight several scenarios of B19V-associated petechial and purpuric rashes, which may present to pediatric departments during outbreaks.
