Generalized granuloma annulare.
Granuloma annulare is an inflammatory condition that is primarily idiopathic, but it has been associated with certain diseases, most notably diabetes mellitus. Lesions usually resolve, but resolution is less likely to occur with diffuse disease. This case report presents a patient with diffuse granuloma annulare. Recent advances in pathogenesis and treatment options are discussed.
