Patch-type granuloma annulare presented as asymptomatic, expanding skin lesions. Standard topical treatments, including antifungals and glucocorticoids, proved ineffective for this patient.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Immunology

Background:

  • Granuloma annulare is a benign inflammatory skin condition.
  • Patch-type granuloma annulare is a less common variant characterized by annular or arcuate plaques.

Observation:

  • A 64-year-old man presented with a 4-month history of asymptomatic, slowly expanding skin lesions on both inner arms.
  • Initial treatment with topical antifungals and subsequently a mid-potency topical glucocorticoid yielded no improvement.

Findings:

  • A biopsy confirmed interstitial granuloma annulare.
  • The clinical presentation was consistent with the patch-type variant of granuloma annulare.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the potential resistance of patch-type granuloma annulare to conventional topical therapies.

  • Further investigation into alternative treatment modalities may be warranted for recalcitrant cases.
