Een tiener met blaren op de armen

This case concerns a girl with geometrically round blisters, mainly on the left arm since 1 month. Histopathologic examination of a skin biopsy showed a necrotic epidermis with subepidermal clefting suggesting thermal damage. Recently, similar thermal burns have been observed more often in adolescents following a so-called ‘deo challenge’.
