“…While topical steroids are considered to be the most important and frequently reported pathogenic factor, other reported factors include cosmetic products, physical factors and microorganisms. 1,[8][9][10][11] GPD is a controversial disease as it shares many similarities with other granulomatous disorders such as GR and cutaneous sarcoidosis. GDP is distinguished from cutaneous sarcoidosis by the absence of systemic involvement and a self-limiting nature.…”

Granulomatous periorificial dermatitis (GPD) is a benign, self-limiting eruption that is considered a clinical variant of periorificial dermatitis, also known as perioral dermatitis. It presents primarily in prepubertal children as monomorphic scaly papules over perioral, paranasal and periorbital areas of the face with rare occurrence in adults. We report a 36-year-old Omani male patient who presented to the Dermatology Clinic at Bahla Polyclinic, Bahla, Oman, in 2018 with a papular eruption over his face for the previous six months. Based on clinical and histopathological findings the patient was diagnosed with GPD with sarcoid-like histology. He was treated effectively with oral doxycycline and topical metronidazole. This report provides a review of the literature on GPD and summarises all reported cases in adults to date.Keywords: Perioral Dermatitis; Dermatitis; Granulomas; Case Report; Oman.

“…Granulomatous rosacea (GR) is a rare chronic inflammatory skin disease reported primarily in middle-aged women [ 1 ]. It is thought to be a particular form of rosacea on the basis of unique clinical and histological findings of granulomas; it is characterized by erythematous papules most commonly affecting the face; and it tends to have a chronic course [ 2 ]. We present the case of a 54-year-old man with a 3-month history of GR associated with demodecidosis.…”

BackgroundGranulomatous rosacea is a rare chronic inflammatory skin disease with an unknown origin. The role of Demodex follicularum in its pathogenesis is currently proved.Case presentationWe report a case of a 54-year-old Moroccan man with a 3-month history of erythematous, nonpruritic papules on the lateral side around the eyes. Dermoscopy and histology confirmed the diagnosis of granulomatous rosacea.ConclusionsWe describe another clinical presentation of granulomatous rosacea with a clinical-dermoscopic-pathological correlation.

“…6 According to the classification system, which has been composed by the National Rosacea Society Expert Committee in 2002; there are four main types (erythematotelangiectatic, papulopustular, phymatous and ocular) and one variant (granulomatous) of the disease. 7 Generally, the convex parts of the face, except for the perioral and periocular region, are affected but the scalp, neck, chest, proximal back, shoulders, arms and proximal lower extremity involvements have been rarely reported. 4 Extrafacial region involvement is encountered mostly in men, as in our case.…”
