Acral pseudolymphomatous angiokeratoma of children (APACHE) is a pseudolymphoma of posttraumatic origin which was first described in 1988. We report on a female patient with APACHE following a traumatic abrasion on her foot. Reddish papules developed that histologically were characterized by a wedge-shaped inflammatory infiltrate rich in capillaries. Conservative treatment was not successful.
