A woman in her thirties with facial swelling and necrotic lesions. / En kvinne i 30-årene med hevelse og nekrotiske lesjoner i ansiktet.

A woman in her thirties developed multiple necrotic lesions on her face in a short space of time. A dermatologist recognised clinical features associated with a rare diagnosis, which was eventually confirmed by diagnostic workup. Known atopic eczema increased the risk of a severe course of what was initially a mild disease, and a multidisciplinary approach proved necessary.
