ABSTRACT
Hypersensitivity to mosquito bites is a disorder characterized by necrotic skin reactions and systemic generalized symptoms subsequent to mosquito bites. This disease has been reported mostly in Japanese patients in their first two decades of life. Recent studies have revealed that hypersensitivity to mosquito bites is frequently associated with chronic Epstein-Barr virus infection and natural killer cell leukemia/lymphoma. We describe here a Korean male adolescent who had hypersensitivity to mosquito bites accompanied by chronic Epstein-Barr virus infection and atypical lymphocytosis.
