Abstrakt | A 65-year-old male presented with a history of disseminated erythema annulare centrifugum lesions and a high peripheral blood eosinophilia (55%). Histopathology of a lesion revealed a superficial and deep perivascular and interstitial inflammatory eosinophilic infiltrate. The bone marrow aspirate showed a heavy eosinophilic infiltrate. There was no evidence of any other systemic involvement except for bone marrow eosinophilia. The patient had a 6-year history of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. The disease is in complete remission for the last 3 years. The clinical and histopathological findings the reported patient correspond to the diagnosis of hypereosinophilic dermatitis. Topical treatment with corticosteroid creams was successful. The cutaneous lesions gradually resolved in 8 weeks, within 7 months the peripheral blood eosinophilia slowly declined from 55% to 7%. | |
