Rare Case of Early Pregnancy-Associated Erythema Annulare Centrifugum in a Low-Resource Setting

Abstract

Erythema annulare centrifugum (EAC) is a reactive inflammatory dermatosis characterized by multiple, pruritic annular plaques that often resolve spontaneously. EAC is putatively caused by hypersensitivity to medications, foods, infections, malignancies, stress, and arthropod bites; however, in many cases, a participating factor is not identified. We present a pregnant woman who was diagnosed with EAC seen by our dermatology team during a short-term brigade in Tegucigalpa, Honduras.
