Middermal Elastolysis-A Possible End Stage of Granuloma Annulare. JAMA dermatology, 2020, 09-01, Volume: 156, Issue:9 Topics: Adult; Asymptomatic Diseases; Betamethasone; Biopsy; Cutis Laxa; Dermis; Female; Granuloma Annulare; Humans; Skin Cream; Treatment Outcome; Tretinoin	2020
Treatment of Annular Elastolytic Giant Cell Granuloma With Topical Tretinoin. Journal of drugs in dermatology : JDD, 2017, Jul-01, Volume: 16, Issue:7 Annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma, also known as actinic granuloma, is a rare skin condition with a chronic course that is often resistant to treatment. Literature is sparse, and only a handful of case reports are available to guide treatment decisions. Typical first line treatment options include topical and intralesional steroids, topical pimecrolimus, and cryotherapy. Resistant cases have been treated with cyclosporine, systemic steroids, antimalarials, and oral retinoids. In particular, acitretin and isotretinoin have shown success in three cases. However, these medications can have side effects and require frequent lab monitoring. We present a case of a 47-year-old woman with bilateral forearm lesions consistent with annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma who was successfully treated with topical tretinoin. J Drugs Dermatol. 2017;16(7):699-700. . Topics: Antineoplastic Agents; Elastic Tissue; Female; Granuloma Annulare; Granuloma, Giant Cell; Humans; Middle Aged; Treatment Outcome; Tretinoin	2017
