A Case Of Recurrent Vaccine-Triggered Gianotti-Crosti Syndrome

Gianotti-Crosti syndrome (GCS) is a self-limited benign dermatosis, clinically characterized by a monomorphic papular or papulovesicular eruption symmetrically distributed on the limbs and face of children. Various viral and vaccine triggers have been associated with GCS. Recurrences are uncommon but have been reported. We report a case of recurrent vaccine-triggered GCS.Lay abstract: The aim of this paper is to give pediatricians and dermatologists a more precise idea of recurrent Gianotti-Crosti syndrome that occurs following vaccine administration to eventually prevent unnecessary investigations in future patients or vaccination restrictions.
