A Case of Eosinophilic Pustular Folliculitis With Atypical Clinical Findings

Abstract

We report a case of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis in a 42-year-old woman who had atypical clinical findings with moderately pruritic erythematous follicular papules and pustules on the face and neck. Histopathologically miny eosinophils and neutrophils infiltrated around the follicles, within the follicles and around tbe vessels. The follicular walls showed spongiosis. The differential count of eosinophils in seram was 1.9%. The patient responded well to systemic steroid and dapsone.
