Abstract
|
|
|
|
Eosinophilic cellulitis is a rare recurrent inflammatory dermatosis, characterized clinically by well-circumscribed erythematous plaques. The histopathologic features of the lesions are dermal edema, infiltration of eosinophils and development of ’flame figures’ in the dermis. A 64-year-old female presented pruritic erythematous plaques, with associated bullae, on her right hand and wrist. Histopathologic examination showed infiltration of eosinophils and characteristic flame figures in the dermis. The clinical presentation and histopathologic alterations are consistent with the diagnosis of eosinophilic cellulitis. Herein, we report a case of bullous eosinophilic cellulitis which is an uncommon variant of eosinophilc cellulitis.
