Papular elastolytic giant cell granuloma is an unusual variant of annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma. Its rarity makes the assessment of the real efficacy of any treatment difficult, as spontaneous remission is possible. We report a case whose interest, besides the rarity of the occurrence, rests in the pure papular expression of the clinical features, the association with a monoclonal gammopathy and the apparent efficacy of topical tacrolimus.
丘疹性弹性纤维分解性 giant cell 肉芽肿是环状弹性纤维分解性 giant cell 肉芽肿的一种罕见变异型。由于可能自发缓解,评估任何治疗方法的真正疗效都很困难。我们报告了一例病例,其有趣之处不仅在于其罕见的发生,还在于其临床表现呈单纯丘疹样、与单克隆丙种球蛋白血症相关以及局部他克莫司的明显疗效。
