定义
Granuloma annulare (GA) is an uncommon benign condition of unknown etiology.[1] Lesions are typically described as dermal papules, which coalesce to form rings, and may be skin-colored, pink, or violaceous; commonly found on the back of hands, ankles, knees, and elbows.[Figure caption and citation for the preceding image starts]: Classic localized granuloma annulareFrom the collection of Susmita Mukherjee, BSc, MBBS, MRCP; used with permission [Citation ends].
A number of clinical variants exist.[2] Histology is characteristic. Most cases are self-limited.[3]
