    Eosinophilic pustular folliculitis, a rare condition, presented as itchy, ring-shaped lesions on a patient's back. Histology revealed characteristic eosinophilic inflammation, confirming the diagnosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Eosinophilic pustular folliculitis (EPF) is a rare inflammatory skin condition.
    • Its etiology remains largely unknown, contributing to diagnostic challenges.

    Observation:

    • A 58-year-old woman presented with sterile, pruritic papules and papulopustules on her back.
    • Lesions formed annular rings with peripheral extension and central clearing, exhibiting cyclical exacerbations and remissions.

    Findings:

    • Laboratory tests revealed moderate peripheral blood eosinophilia.
    • Histopathological examination showed spongiosis with eosinophilic exocytosis, predominantly around hair follicles.

    Implications:

    • The findings support the diagnosis of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis.
