AB We report a case of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome with pruritic
papular eruption. The patient, a hemophiliac, presented with generalized
pruritic, skin-colored papules and nodules. The chronic lesions were
excoriated and hyper-pigmented. The eosinophil count was elevated, but
IgE was normal. The lesions and pruritus responded only to ultraviolet B
phototherapy. While the mechanism is not known, ultraviolet B
phototherapy may provide relief of AIDS-related pruritus.
