Abstract
Urticaria is a common syndrom which is manifested by pruritic edematous erythematous plaques. These plaques have no predilection site. They can migrate during the evolution of urticaria. Their second particularity is their fleeting character for they disapear after few hours without treatment. Urticaria has been associated with psychological, allergic and infectious factors. Among incriminated infections, hepatitis viruses have been cited. We are reporting a case of urticaria revealing an anicteric hepatitis B infection.
