[Childhood eosinophilic pustulosis].
Childhood eosinophilic pustulosis is a rare disease that is characterized by recurrent outbreaks of pruritic pustules and follicular papules. The lesions are sterile and contain masses of eosinophils related to the scalp hair follicle. Because of the good prognosis for these symptoms, conservative treatment with topical corticosteroids is recommended. We present two cases of this disease, describing its clinical course and development over two years.
