Asymmetric periflexural exanthem of childhood (also known as "unilateral laterothoracic exanthem") is a cutaneous condition that occurs primarily in the late winter and early spring, most common in Europe, and affecting girls more often than boys.[1]:400[2]
It is probably viral,[3] but no virus has yet been associated with the condition.
