ABSTRACT
Eosinophilic pustular folliculitis was first reported by Ofuji and Ogino in 1970, which is characterized by eruptions of aggregated pustules containing numerous eosinophils and by blood eosinophilia. Most cases were confined to Japan and the authors first observed two cases of typical eosinophilic pustular folliculitis in Korea. In case 1, the skin lesions were grouped uniforrn follicular papules on the erythematous base which intermingled with vesicopustules at the edge of the patches on the mandibular area, the neck and the anterior chest having tendency to central healing and peripheral extension like dermatophytosis. In case 2, the skin lesiens vere groupod uniform follicular papules of 1-2mm in diameter to form patches of 5-10 cm in diameter on the back, the a,nterior chest and the upper examities, some of which were topped with pustules or crusts. In both cases, blood eosinophilia were prominent and the histopathclogic findings showed dermal infiltration and abscesses of predominently eosinophilic leukocytes localized to follicles. The authors made the diagnosis of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis from the characteristic clinical and histopathologic findings.
