[Generalized granuloma annulare].

The generalized or atypical granuloma annulare represents 8.5-15 p. 100 of all cases of granuloma annulare (GA). It differs from the localized GA variant by its morphology, its localization, a later age of onset, its protracted course, a poor response to therapy and its facultative association to diabetes mellitus. We present a typical case of generalized GA associated with eczematous dermatitis.
