Interstitial granulomatous drug reaction (IGDR) is a rare inflammatory reaction of the skin with an unknown etiology. Here, we report the case of a 55-year-old female with a history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension who presented with an asymptomatic persistent skin lesion over the left breast for more than one year. Skin examination revealed a single non-scaly, sharply demarcated, erythematous annular patch. Skin biopsy showed epidermal atrophy and histiocytic infiltrate throughout the entire dermis, both interstitial and perivascular. The patient was diagnosed with IGDR. We decided not to change her medications because her chronic diseases were well-controlled on these medications; her skin lesion was asymptomatic, very mild, and localized to a small body area; and, lastly, IGDR is not associated with any complications in the future.
间质性肉芽肿性药物反应(IGDR)是一种病因不明的罕见皮肤炎症反应。在此,我们报告一例55岁女性病例,该患者有糖尿病和高血压病史,左乳出现无症状持续性皮肤病变超过一年。皮肤检查发现一个单一的无鳞屑、边界清晰的红斑性环状斑块。皮肤活检显示表皮萎缩以及整个真皮层(间质和血管周围)有组织细胞浸润。该患者被诊断为IGDR。我们决定不改变她的药物治疗,因为她的慢性病在这些药物治疗下控制良好;她的皮肤病变无症状、非常轻微且局限于身体的小面积区域;最后,IGDR在未来不会引发任何并发症。
