Lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei: a distinctive facial granulomatous eruption

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.
