Asymmetric periflexural exanthem of childhood (APEC) (also known as "unilateral laterothoracic exanthem") is a rare, self-limited and spontaneously resolving skin rash of the exanthem type with unknown etiology that occurs in children.[1] It occurs primarily in the late winter and early spring, most common in Europe, and affecting girls more often than boys.[2]:400[3]
It is probably viral,[4] but no virus has yet been associated with the condition.
