Papular granuloma annulare of palms and soles: case report of a rare presentation

We report the case of a 44-year-old Indian male patient who presented with mildly tender isolated papular lesions confined to the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. The histopathology was characteristic of granuloma annulare. There was an excellent response with 4-week treatment with a potent topical steroid ointment and no recurrence was reported at the follow-up one year later. This report is interesting because of the rare presentation of a common disease.
