title: [Unusual circinary variant of generalized granuloma anulare].
abstract: We report on a 56-year-old male patient with annular, erythematous and slightly elevated lesions measuring up to 12 cm in diameter on the trunk. Histologically a diffuse mononuclear infiltrate with histiocytic giant cells was present. His condition is a rare variant of generalized granuloma annulare in association with diabetes mellitus.
