Objective: To share our experince from demographic and labaratory results of 46 patients who applied to our policlinic with complaints of fever and rash and diagnosed as roseola infantum between 2012-2016. Material and Methods: Labaratory and demographic findings of 41 patients who diagnosed as roseola infantum clinically had been evaluated. Roseala infantum cases were diagnosed as 10 mo old infant with high temperature over three days and nontoxic maculopapuller rash on the trunk and after making differential diagnosis of other diseases that courses with skin rash and high body temperature. Neutrophil counts between 0-500, 500-1000 and 1000-1500 were accepted as high, medium and low, respectively. Results: 25 of the patients were female (54.3%), 21 of them were male (45.7%), mean age was 11.5 ± 7.02 (3-36 months) and peak age of onset was 9-11 months. 76% of patients were (35/46) under one years of age. Disease was seen all year round but it was seen least at September and October and was seen mostly at December. Mean labaratory leves were found as: Hb 11.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
