Eosinophilic pustular folliculitis (EPF), first described by Ofuji et al. in 1970, is a rare dermatosis characterized by pruritic papules and pustules on circinate erythematous plaques with eosinophilic infiltration in and around the hair follicle.
We report three cases of EPF that showed no macroscopic pustules during the total observation period. Histopathological examination revealed eosinophilic infiltration in and around the hair follicle in the lower dermis and subcutis.
EPF consists of clinical variants, one of which lacks obvious pustules.
嗜酸性脓疱性毛囊炎(EPF)于 1970 年由 Ofuji 等人首次描述,是一种罕见的皮肤病,其特征是环状红斑上有瘙痒性丘疹和脓疱,毛囊内和周围有嗜酸性粒细胞浸润。
我们报告了三例 EPF 病例,在整个观察期间均无肉眼可见的脓疱。组织病理学检查显示真皮和皮下组织中毛囊内和周围有嗜酸性粒细胞浸润。
EPF 包括临床变异型,其中一种缺乏明显的脓疱。
