A 36-year-old man has suffered from multiple, well defined, variable sized, and elevated papulonodular patches with oozing, scale, and crust on the face. He also presented multiple folliculitis-like eruptions on upper chest, back, and both limbs. He had no leukocytosis, but elevated ESR and fever during development of skin lesions. Histologically a dense iaflammatory cell infiltra,tion composed predominantly of polymorphonuclear neutrophils and few lymphoid cells were seen in the dermis and subcutis. The symptoms and signs did not spond to dapsone and tetracycline, but disappeared on orally administered predniselone.
