Abstract

Introduction: The aim of this case report is to show the results of therapeutical procedures in the facial granuloma.

Case: A 48 year old male patient had multiple facial granulomas persisting for at least 8 years. They were unresponsive to dapsone. The surgical removal of two lesions and the liquid nitrogen cryotherapy of the remaining lesions were efficient without recurrence in a follow-up time of 6 months.

Comments: Lesions of facial granuloma do not spontaneously regress; they are easily recognized and differentiated from other conditions occurring on the face. New therapeutical approaches are welcome, even if they are empirical, in so far as they are efficient and reproducible.
