Reactive Infectious Mucocutaneous Eruption Associated With <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>
Reactive infectious mucocutaneous eruption (RIME) is a clinical syndrome characterized by mucosal and cutaneous manifestations triggered by various infectious agents. Herein, we describe a case of an 11-year-old girl who presented with RIME, with significant genital involvement, associated with a urinary tract infection caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae. This case highlights the importance of examining the genital mucosa in RIME and the need for increased awareness of RIME among physicians.
