✦ Synopsis

ABSTRACT

The authors report a case of congenital rubella in a 7‐month‐old female infant presenting a Blueberry Muffin Rash. Blueberry Muffin Syndrome is a cutaneous manifestation characterized by widespread maculo papular lesions of a reddish‐blue or magenta colour, due to persistent dermal erythropoiesis in patients with congenital viral infections.
