Abstract
Urticaria multiforme is a cutaneous disorder, which mainly affects infants and young children. It seems like erythema multiforme, but it has a benign and self-limiting course. Its etiology is unknown and treatment, symptomatic. Their knowledge and differential diagnosis is important to avoid unnecessary diagnostic procedures, correct management and provide adequate information to parents.
