Abstract:
Reactive infectious mucocutaneous eruption (RIME) is a recently identified nosological entity that distinguishes certain mucocutaneous reactions caused by bacterial or viral infections from Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS). We present the case of a 14-year-old boy who developed mucositis with minimal skin involvement associated with positivity for rhinovirus and HHV-7, which is consistent with a diagnosis of RIME.
