Hematidrosis is a disorder in which blood-tinged fluid exudes from uninjured skin or mucosa. It is often classified as an eccrine sweat disorder, though the precise mechanism-including involvement of sweat glands-has yet to be proven. In contemporary case reports, hematidrosis appears most frequently in the pediatric population, with 83% of cases in the literature since 2008 occurring in individuals 18 years old or younger. We present here a case of a 10-year-old girl with hematidrosis followed by a review of the literature, with an emphasis on the features of this condition in the pediatric population.
