• Hann SK

Abstract

Autoerythrocyte sensitization syndrome is characterized by sudden and spontaneous painful bruising and swelling occurring in adult female patients with emotional disorders. Systemic symptoms often accompany the onset of these lesions. A diagnosis of this syndrome can be made in a patient who has the typical history and clinical picture of the syndrome and in whom a skin test with the patient's blood reveals a positive reaction.
