Annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma (AEGCG) is a rare granulomatous skin disease of unclear pathogenesis which belongs to the group of disorders in the skin and elastic fibers with similar clinical features of granuloma annulare (GA). This case report is intended to describe a rare hybrid pattern in histopathology demonstrating coexistence of AEGCG and GA. An endocrine disease, such as dia...

Granuloma annulare (GA) is frequently associated with diabetes mellitus, malignant diseases and infectious diseases. 1 A recent study has shown that GA may be observed concurrently with autoimmune disease, including systemic sclerosis and dermatomyositis. 2 Herein, we describe a patient with the rare coexistence of granuloma annulare and chronic spontaneous urticaria. A 59-year old woman presen...

A biopsy from the lesion on the hand was consistent with features of localized granuloma annulare. The patient was reassured that the condition was self-limited. The lesion on her calf, however, grew larger and new nummular and annular plaques developed that ultimately involved her legs, arms, abdomen, and back. A new diagnosis was made of generalized granuloma annulare. During the next 21⁄2 ye...

Depending on the location, dermatoses can produce blemishes that severely impair quality of life and require highly effective treatment that is otherwise used for extensive skin involvement. We report the case of a 39-year-old, otherwise healthy male disfigured by an 8 × 7-cm hypopigmented and centrally atrophic annular plaque with erythematous indurated borders in an area of scar tissue on his...

A 55 year old female came to Skin OPD with extensive pruritic annular papules and plaques over both upper limbs, lower limbs, back and abdomen. Biopsy from one of the lesion confirmed histopathologiclly Granuloma annulare. This case is being presented for its extensive skin involvement without any systemic disorder.
