Granuloma faciale with subglottic eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis: case report and review of the literature.
Cutis; Cutaneous Medicine for the Practitioner 2011 August
Granuloma faciale (GF) is an uncommon inflammatory dermatosis that usually presents on the face as reddish brown or violaceous papules and nodules that may coalesce into plaques. Eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis (EAF) is a rare fibrosing condition that shares many histologic characteristics with GF and is regarded by some authors as a mucosal counterpart of GF. We present a case of GF with concurrent EAF in a subglottic location with excellent response to an intralesional corticosteroid on the GF lesion, CO2 laser on the EAF lesion, and oral dapsone treatment.
