Papular and reticular elastolytic giant cell granuloma: rapid spontaneous regression.
Annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma (AEGCG) (1) is a rare granulomatous skin disease, characterized by elastolysis, elastophagocytosis, and an abundance of multinucleated giant cells. Actinic granuloma (2) is generally involved in the entity of AEGCG (1), but is localized in chronically sun-exposed and damaged regions, while normally demonstrating solitary or multiple , typical annular les...
متن کاملAnnular Elastolytic Giant Cell Granuloma Successfully Treated with Minocycline Hydrochloride.
Annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma (AEGCG) is a rare granulomatous skin disease characterised by small papules that evolve into annular/polycyclic plaques. Plaques typically have a slightly raised border; the centre may be hypopigmented and/or atrophic. Lesions are usually located on sun-exposed areas such as the face and the neck (1, 2). Histologically, AEGCG is associated with multinucl...
متن کاملAnnular elastolytic giant cell granuloma of conjunctiva: A case report
Annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma is a condition characterized histologically by damaged elastic fibers associated with preponderance of giant cells along with absence of necrobiosis, lipid, mucin, and pallisading granuloma. It usually occurs on sun-damaged skin and hence the previous name actinic granuloma. A similar process occurs on the conjunctiva. Over the past three decades only fo...

AEGCG: annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma INTRODUCTION Annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma (AEGCG) is an uncommon condition belonging to the family of elastolytic granuloma, which also includes actinic granuloma, atypical necrobiosis lipoidica of the face and scalp, and Miescher’s granuloma. Classification of AEGCG as a distinct entity has been controversial. Although some consider i...
متن کاملAn usual elastophagocytic granuloma with involvement of the back: a possible variant of an annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma.
Annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma (AEGCG) is a very infrequent granulomatous dermatitis characterized by elastolysis and elastophagocytosis. It usually appears in middle-aged Caucasian women and is normally located in sun-exposed areas.We present a case of a 73-year-old woman with hypertension and type II diabetes, who was admitted to the hospital for an ischemic cerebrovascular accident...
