Paediatric haematohidrosis: an overview of a rare but clinically distinct condition.

Haematohidrosis is a rare and dramatic condition in which bleeding occurs spontaneously from intact skin. We report the case of a nine-year-old boy with a typical clinical presentation. The case highlights how challenging it can be for medical professionals to recognise and evaluate rare conditions. A review of the literature was performed, showing that haematohidrosis is mainly a paediatric condition. Our case together with findings from the review indicates that treatment with Beta blockers may be effective for treatment of haematohidrosis in children. Conclusion: Paediatric haematohidrosis is a rare, but clinically distinct condition. Treatment with Beta blockers may be tested.
