[Differential diagnosis of granulomatous skin diseases].
The case histories of two female patients with granulomatosis disciformis and necrobiosis lipoidica are reported. Widespread skin manifestations, also in face and neck, with peculiar anular lesions complicated the differential diagnostic discrimination from sarcoidosis. The aspects of the cases and their progress are discussed in regard to the necessity of permanent checking of diagnostic preconditions during therapy.
