Abstract:
Disseminate and recurrent infundibulo-folliculitis is a rare,but distinctive dermatosis characterized by pruritic papular follicular eruption over the trunk and proximal extremities with histologic findings of lymphocytic infiltrations and spongiosis confined to the infundibulum. Little is known about the cause. Resistance to treatment is one of the characteristics of this disease. We herein report a case with typical clinical and histological findings in a 22 year old male.
