Abstract

Facial granulomatous papules are important to recognise, as some of them are associated with significant systemic association, particularly sarcoidosis and certain infectious conditions. Lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei (LMDF) is a benign granulomatous disorder of unknown aetiology characterised by symmetrical, monomorphic, reddish-brown papules on the face. It is not associated with any underlying systemic involvement. We report a case of LMDF in a middle-aged man who presented to us with multiple asymptomatic and monomorphic reddish papules on the face for 3 months. Skin biopsy showed well-formed perifollicular epithelioid cell granulomas with focus of necrosis suggestive of LMDF. The lesions significantly responded to oral steroids.
