[Granuloma disseminatum partim anulare partim papulosum. Clinical variant of granuloma anulare disseminatum--therapeutic trial with etretinate].

We report on a clinically and morphologically interesting case of generalized granuloma anulare showing disseminated lichenoid papules as well as anulare formations. Histopathology confirmed the clinical diagnosis. Under oral application of etretinate, the lesions decreased significantly within 3 weeks; complete remission was noticed after 5 months.
