A 9-year-old child presented with moderate to high grade fever, mild anemia, and erythematous rash involving face, trunks and limbs associated with arthralgia, myalgia and myositis. Parvovirus B19 infection was confirmed by detection of IgM antibodies (inhouse ELISA) and DNA (nested PCR) in patient's serum.
