Abstract:
Childhood granulomatous perioral dermatitis is a distinctive granulomatous process of unknown cause with a benign and self-limited course and no associated systemic manifestations. We herein report a case of a 12-year-old Korean girl with multiple, discrete, monomorphic, flesh-colon, papular eruptions on the perioral, periocular, and perinasal areas of 7-month duration. Histopathologic examination revealed upper dermal and perifollicular granulomatous infiltrate.
