ABSTRACT
Necrobiosis lipoidica is a rare dermatosis of unknown origin. It can be observed in patients with unaltered glucose indexes but frequently associated to wellestablished diabetes mellitus. It is even less common that this type of skin lesions occur in pre-diabetic staging. This is the case of 65 years-old woman, who had presented 1 cm-long papulloerythematous lesion with well-defined contours for 10 years in the inner lateral side of her right leg. She had been recently biopsied in her cutaneous lesion and made a glucose-tolerance test, which yielded necrobiosis lipoidica and altered glucose tolerance. It is considered that the patients with this disease should be followed-up for a long period to timely diagnose diabetes mellitus or other pre-diabetic conditions.REFERENCES
