ABSTRACT
Granuloma annulare is a benign dermatosis that usually occurs as an idiophatic condition. It has been described
in association with malignant neoplasms, such as lymphoma, prostate carcinoma, cervical adenocarcinoma,
leukaemia, and others. We present two cases with granuloma annulare associated to breast
cancer. There are only a few reports about this association in the literature consulted.
