  • Title: [Unclear pruritic and urticarial skin inflammation. Bed bug attack].
    Author: Arayesh A, Wieczorek D, Kapp A, Raap U.
    Journal: Hautarzt; 2013 Mar; 64(3):187-9. PubMed ID: 23223900.
    Abstract:
    A 27-year-old woman presented with severe pruritus for a few weeks and diffuse urticarial erythema with pinhead-sized papules over the entire body. The skin lesions occurred directly after a stay in her secondary residence in London. The medical history, clinical picture and histological feature of an arthropod reaction in the skin biopsy, coupled with patient offering a bed bug specimen as evidence, secured the diagnosis of a cimicosis.
