Abstract

Granuloma Annulare is a benign cutaneous disease. Juxta-articular nodules are rarely seen among adults. These nodules are a considered as subcutaneous form of granuloma annulare. We are reporting a case of an adult male with this rare presentation along with history of associated diabetes mellitus. The biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of granuloma annulare and the patient responded to intralesional steroids and oral isotretinoin therapy.
