“…In perforating folliculitis the transfollicular elimination of the dermal inflammatory response occurs as a sequel to primary changes within the pilary apparatus. Many cases of perforating granuloma annulare have been reported since the histologic description by Owens & Freeman (1971), although this condition had already been documented in a different context by Pinkus in 1934. The elimination of necrobiotic connective tissue together with the surrounding palisading granuloma seems to have exclusively occurred via the transepidermal route.…”

In recent years the phenomenon of transepithelial elimination has been found to be the underlying mechanism in a variety of skin disorders. "Perforating dermatoses" may show transepidermal or transfollicular elimination or a combination of the two. A case of papular granuloma annulare is reported, where in one lesion the pilary apparatus actively participated in the elimination of necrobiotic collagen from the dermis. To our knowledge, perforating granuloma annulare with a transfollicular pathway has not previously been described. Also, a classification of perforating dermatoses is presented.

“…Since Mehregan (2) proposed the concept of TE in 1968, many cutaneous disorders showing TE as a major part of disease process or as an occasional feature have been reported. The former group are well known as the essential perforating diseases (elastosis perforans ser- (4), necrobiosis lipoidica (5), and rheumatoid nodule (6)], lichen nitidus (7), cutaneous tuberculosis (8), and cutaneous mycoses (9). Cutaneous sarcoidosis showing TE has rarely been reported.…”

“…Generalized granuloma annulare commonly occurs in older adults; atypical forms including giant, subcutaneous and perforating forms are well-known (1,4,5). The disease is usually selflimited, but its treatment can sometimes be complicated (6)(7)(8).…”

Generalized granuloma annulare commonly occurs in older adults. Atypical (perforating) forms are well known, but treatment can sometimes be complicated. A case of atypical generalized granuloma annulare successfully treated with PUVA is reported. The histology and immunohistology of the skin, histopathologic, immunohistopathologic and electronmicroscopic studies of the liver, immunoserology and laboratory investigations are detailed. The most important findings were as follows; diabetic glucose tolerance test, typical histology of the skin disease, steatosis and non‐specific reactive hepatitis, focal Kupffer cell proliferation, Kupffer cell autoantibodies in the liver and slightly enhanced liver functions. The hepatic lesions observed and latent diabetes mellitus are considered to be correlated with the generalized dermal symptoms.
