Perforating granuloma annulare (PGA) is a rare inflammatory condition characterized by transepithelial elimination of necrobiotic collagen with granulomas in the dermis. It commonly presents as umbilicated papules or pustules on the extremities and dorsal hands. The distribution of PGA can be described as generalized or localized, with only 9% of patients presenting with a single lesion. Herein, we report an unusual presentation of PGA as a single localized plaque on the forearm that resembled psoriasis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
