It was first related to hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection; however, cases not associated with HBV infection were reported as well. Although a type of delayed hypersensitivity reaction is speculated as a cause, exact pathogenesis still remains unclear. The prognosis is favorable and successful management relies upon general supportive and symptomatic care. We report a seven-year-old boy diagnosed with Gianotti-Crosti syndrome with monomorphous papules on his cheeks, buttocks and extremities associated with hepatitis B virus infection.en10.2478/v10039-008-0013-0info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessGianotti-Crosti syndromeHepatitis B infectionA case of Gianotti Crosti syndrome with HBV infectionArticle532338340Q2N/A
