- Abstract
The article presents a case report on transient cosinophilic nodules. In January 1981, a 71 year old female patient suddenly developed skin lesions on the trunk, arms and legs with generalized pruritus. A bacterial superinfection of the skin was treated with antibiotics. Although the rash at first disappeared, it reappeared one month later. An erythernato-papular rash was present on the back, abdomen, buttocks and extremities. The bacterial infection was treated with oral flucloxacillin and local silver-suiphadiazinc ointment for two days. The rash decreased during this time and subsequently faded completely.
