title: Widespread eosinophilic pustular folliculitis in a nonimmunocompromised patient.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  We present a case of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis, a rare dermatosis which is often associated with HIV infection or internal malignancies.
  
  
  METHODS
  We report the case of a 66-year-old man with a medical history of hypertension. Histopathological examination showed a dense follicular inflammatory infiltrate with abundant eosinophils. The clinical response to indomethacin was excellent with no recurrence during the follow-up.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The patient responded well to indomethacin treatment.
