title: [Cutaneous granulomatosis].
abstract: Granulomatous skin diseases represent a large group of reactive dermatoses occurring in response to different stimuli and whose skin biopsy is characterized by a granulomatous inflammatory infiltrate. By their very heterogeneous clinical presentation, it seems difficult to distinguish them and make their diagnosis. Clinically, it may be useful to separate localized forms of disseminated forms of cutaneous granulomatosis, although this distinction is often artificial. We will discuss here the main forms of localized and disseminated cutaneous granulomatosis, and, in light of recent literature data, mention different therapeutic options in each case.
