Extensive papulonodular lesion in a child - granuloma annulare presenting as a diagnostic dilemma

ABSTRACT

Granuloma annulare is an idiopathic, palisaded, granulomatous disorder. There are four main clinical varieties of GA of which the subcutaneous type is less commonly encountered. Here, we report a case of generalized subcutaneous granuloma annulare in a 10-year-old boy. This variety is common in children but its generalized form is a rare presentation.
