[Miescher's granulomatous cheilitis. Diagnostic and therapeutic aspects].

Granulomatous cheilitis Miescher is a rare condition of unclear etiology, which is discussed as a monosymptomatic feature of Melkersson-Rosenthal-Syndrome, an extraintestinal form of Crohn's Disease or an unspecific cutaneous symptom of any granulomatous disease. Clinical appearance and diagnostic aspects are described. Therapeutical approaches as surgical intervention, corticoid- and sulfasalazine therapy and especially efforts with systemic clofazimine treatment are discussed.
