Abstract

Erythromelalgia is a rare disease characterized by intense erythema, burning pain and increased temperature in the distal of the extremities. Primary forms and secondary forms have been described, most commonly with essential thrombocythemia and policythemia vera. The authors describe a fifteen year old patient with primary erythromelalgia and discuss the pathogenic, clinical and therapeutic features of this disease.
