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...

Although histological assessment can assist in many dermatological diagnoses, there has been a recent trend to add imaging modalities improve diagnostic accuracy. Ultrasound uses large array of frequencies that correspond various depths the skin: subcutaneous layer be viewed with high resolution. Subcutaneous nodules, deep-seated lesions deep dermis and layers, are attractive targets for ultras...

BACKGROUND Granuloma annulare is a granulomatous disease of unknown etiology. Various therapies have been tried in disseminated granuloma annulare (DGA), including corticosteroids, several variants of psoralen plus ultraviolet-A radiation, ultraviolet- A1 radiation, systemic retinoids, and dapsone, with variable success. We report a patient with recalcitrant DGA who was treated with fumaric aci...

Granuloma annulare (GA) is a benign and typically selflimiting granulomatous disease of unknown etiology; it tends to resolve spontaneously over a period of months or years. It usually presents with annular lesions on the hands, upper limbs, trunk, or lower limbs; facial involvement is rare. It is associated with diabetes mellitus, paraneoplastic disorders, thyroid disturbances, and some drugs....
