ABSTRACT
Comunicamos un caso del denominado granuloma anular elastolítico, con células gigantes, en una mujer de 73 años, quien lamentablemente no concurrió al control evolutivo. La ubicación nosológica y la relación con el granuloma actínico y el granuloma anular son discutidas.
A 73-year-old white female, with a several months of history of ring shaped skin lesions, localized in her proximal limbs are communicated. The annular lesions have erythematous raised borders, and an atrophic hypo pigmented central patches. The hematoxylin and eosin staining showed a granulomatous infiltrate in the upper and middle dermis, with elastophagocytosis and elastolisis. The histological diagnosis was annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma. The relationship with the actinic y annular granulomas is discussed.
