육아종성 입주위 피부염 1예

Abstract

A 54-year-old female developed symmetrical, grouped, perioral papules affecting the perioral area for four years. Histologic examination revealed spongiosis and edema in the follicular infundibulum. Mild mononuclear cell exocytosis and perivascular lymphohistiocytic infiltration were seen. In addition, granulomatous areas were present. She had used topical corticosteroid intermittently and no associated systemic abnormalities. We made diagnosis that this condition was granulomatous perioral dermatitis, which began to resolve in about three weeks after oral doxycycline and topical metronidazole treatment.
