ABSTRACT

A 60 year-old man with a 10 year’s history of progressive asymthomatic eruption characterized by violaceous bands on the lateral aspect of trunk and internal part of the extremities is reported. The histopathological examination showed a granuloma annulare. Linear granuloma annulare is a very uncommon variant, and such an extensive eruption is exceptional to our knowledge.
