ABSTRACT

Centrifugal erythema annulare is a rare, chronic inflammatory dermatosis that is part of the figurative erythema. So far, its pathogenesis is still unknown, however, it is considered a reactive dermatosis to various antigens. The lesions are generally located on the trunk and lower extremities, consisting of erythema and fine whitish scales, which converge to form urticarial-like plaques that acquire an annular arrangement, expanding towards the periphery, leaving a healthy center outlined by a characteristic "trailing scale" on the advancing edge. Its evolution is recurrent. In recent decades, a relationship between this pathology and the manifestation of various systemic diseases has been detected, for which the authors suggest that this dermatosis could be considered a cutaneous marker of comorbidities. In this article, a review of the subject is made.
