Figurate erythemas (FE) are a group of diseases defined by the presence of annular or arciform erythematous skin lesions that can occur anywhere on the body. Four different types of figurate erythemas have been described: erythema annulare centrifugum (EAC), erythema gyratum repens (EGR), erythema migrans, and erythema marginatum. While each of these presents with similar morphologies, the clinical and histopathological features are often unique and can aid in the diagnosis. Although the majority of the figurate erythemas are idiopathic, some may be associated with infections, stress, or other diseases. We present a novel case of recurrent figurate erythema in a 27-year-old male that appeared to be exacerbated by hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) and social stressors.
环状红斑(FE)是一组由环形或弧形红斑性皮肤损害定义的疾病,可发生于身体的任何部位。已描述了四种不同类型的环状红斑:离心性环状红斑(EAC)、匐行性回状红斑(EGR)、游走性红斑和边缘性红斑。虽然这些红斑中的每一种都具有相似的形态,但临床和组织病理学特征通常是独特的,有助于诊断。虽然大多数环状红斑是特发性的,但有些可能与感染、压力或其他疾病有关。我们报告一例27岁男性复发性环状红斑的新病例,该病例似乎因氢氯噻嗪(HCTZ)和社会压力因素而加重。
