RESUMO
Aseptic facial granuloma is a rare pediatric disease, presenting with asymptomatic facial nodules on the cheeks or the eyelids and may represent a form of granulomatous rosacea in children. In this retrospective case series, 12 children with aseptic facial granuloma were treated with oral macrolides (erythromycin or roxithromycin) resulting in a healing of the lesions within a mean treatment time of 5.25 months with no recurrences. The treatment was mainly well tolerated. Oral macrolides may be effective in the treatment of patients with aseptic facial granuloma.
