title: Gianotti-Crosti syndrome in two unrelated adults.
abstract: Two unrelated adult patients are described who both developed an exanthem with the characteristic morphology and distribution of the Gianotti-Crosti syndrome. The literature of adult cases of Gianotti-Crosti syndrome is reviewed with the suggestion that the syndrome may not be as uncommon as previously supposed.
