Maculopapular eruptions are frequently described as large areas of rash characterised by red, small, confluent bumps. They are frequently puzzling for the attending clinician due to the multiple possible aetiologies. Accurate diagnosis is important because treatment varies depending on the aetiology, and some rashes can be life-threatening if not treated promptly. Common aetiologies implicated include drug allergies, infection-related (for example: viral exanthems, scarlet fever) and autoimmune conditions (for example: Still's disease). We report a case of maculopapular eruption associated with mucocutaneous involvement and systemic symptoms. The possible differential diagnoses and approach to the management of this patient are discussed.
斑丘疹常被描述为大片皮疹，其特征为红色、小而融合的丘疹。由于可能的病因众多，它们常常让主治医生感到困惑。准确诊断很重要，因为治疗方法因病因不同而异，而且有些皮疹如果不及时治疗可能会危及生命。常见的病因包括药物过敏、感染相关（例如：病毒疹、猩红热）和自身免疫性疾病（例如：斯蒂尔病）。我们报告一例伴有黏膜皮肤受累和全身症状的斑丘疹病例。讨论了该患者可能的鉴别诊断和处理方法。
