Erythema ab igne in patients with sickle cell disease.
Pediatric Hematology and Oncology 2018 April
Erythema ab igne (EAI) is an asymptomatic dermatosis caused by prolonged exposure to localized heat. Affected areas have net-like hyperpigmentation that may resemble more serious conditions such as livedo racemosa or vasculitis. We report three cases of EAI in pediatric sickle cell disease (SCD) patients who were initially suspected of having a more severe, life-threatening disorder before Dermatology was consulted. Clinicians caring for pediatric SCD patients who regularly use heating pads/devices for pain relief should consider EAI in the differential diagnosis of large areas of net-like hyperpigmentation. This paper aims to increase recognition of EAI and patient education on safe practices while using heating pads.
