The Open Dermatology Journal Feb 2020 CASE REPORT DOI: 10.2174/1874372202014010001

Abstract

Background:

The skin lesions of Cutaneous Larva Migrans (CLM) commonly manifests as single, linear, irregular, serpiginous raised erythematous track, but the other clinical variants exist. This case series aimed to report one case of a vesiculobullous lesion in CLM and one case of CLM with generalized distribution serpiginous erythematous skin lesion.

Objectives:

We report one case of a vesiculobullous lesion in CLM and one case of CLM with generalized distribution serpiginous erythematous skin lesion.

Conclusion:

There were CLM with vesiculobullous lesions and also with generalized distribution of skin lesion. The pathogenesis of this condition is still unknown. In both cases, albendazole 400 mg per day for 3 and 5 days gave an effective result.

Keywords: Albendazole, Bullous, Cutaneous larva migrans, Generalized, Serpiginous, Vesiculobullous.
