Granuloma annulare is a benign skin condition forming ring-shaped rashes. While often asymptomatic, treatments like glucocorticosteroids, phototherapy, and newer options like biologicals can manage symptoms.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Immunology
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Granuloma annulare is a benign, self-limiting skin disease.
  • Characterized by dermal papules forming annular shapes.
  • Belongs to granulomatous inflammatory skin diseases.

Purpose:

  • To provide an overview of granuloma annulare.
  • To discuss its variants and therapeutic approaches.

Summary:

  • The disease presents with histomorphologically detectable granulomas.
  • It includes localized, generalized, and disseminated variants.
  • Established therapies include glucocorticosteroids, PUVA, and cryosurgery for localized forms.
  • Disseminated cases benefit from antimalarials, retinoids, and phototherapy.
