摘要：

A 6-year-old boy presented with post-burn like cutaneous scars over the buttocks and the back of thighs, following skin ulceration. Cutaneous polyarteritis (CPA) was diagnosed based on the histopathological examination of the skin biopsy specimen from one of the scars. Such a presentation of childhood CPA, to our knowledge, is not documented in the English literature.
