En este artículo mostramos una presentación atípica de pitiriasis rosada en una paciente diagnosticada inicialmente de tiña corporis. La pitiriasis rosada es una dermatosis papuloescamosa aguda y autolimitada que afecta fundamentalmente a niños y adultos jóvenes sin predominancia de sexo. Se postula una etiología infecciosa, fundamentalmente vírica, aunque no ha podido ser confirmada. Esta entidad puede manifestarse con formas atípicas que dificultan el diagnóstico, y además es una dermatosis que se irrita con extremada facilidad variando su aspecto clínico (AU)
In this article, we present an atypical presentation of pityriasis rosea in a patient initially diagnosed of tinea corporia. Pityriasis rosea is an acute and self-limited papulosquamous dermatosis that fundamentally affects children and young adults with no gender predominance. It is hypothesized that its etiology is infectious, basically viral, although this has not been confirmed. This condition may occur in atypical forms that hinder its diagnosis and is a dermatosis that becomes irritated very easily, varying its clinical aspect (AU)
