A doença de Mucha-Habermann ulceronecrótica febril (FUMHD) é uma variante clínica rara da pitiríase liquenoide variceliforme aguda (PLEVA). Tem etiologia incerta e é caracterizada por lesões úlceronecróticas, associadas a sintomas sistêmicos. Relata-se um caso de paciente masculino, com início agudo de lesões máculo-papulares, vesicobolhosas e úlceronecróticas, associadas à febre alta e mialgia.
