| Abstract |
|
Eosinophilic pustular folliculitis(EPF) is characterized by recurrent crops of pruritic folliculocentric papulopustules that occur mainly on face, trunk and extremities of young men. The main histologic feature is the infiltration of eosinophils into the follicular epidermis and adjacent dermis. Herein, we report two cases of EPF, one in a 35-year-old female and the other in a 58 year-old man. Histopathologic findings of the skin biopsy taken from 2 patients represented the heavy infiltration of eosinophils around and in the hair follicles, sebaceous glands and blood vessels. We could see beneficial responses by administration of dapsone in both cases. |
