Abstract
Actinic granuloma (AG) is a rare dermatological condition with only a few dozen cases reported worldwide. Initially classified as a variant of granuloma annulare, it is now recognized as a distinct entity characterized by asymptomatic annular plaques in sun-exposed areas of the skin. The exact pathogenesis remains unclear, but it is believed to be an inflammatory response to sun damage, possibly involving injured elastic fibers. Numerous local and systemic therapeutic options exist, but no specific treatment guidelines have been established. We present a case of AG treated with intralesional application of triamcinolone acetonide in a 64-year-old male patient. We also discuss the most important clinical and histological characteristics and various treatment options.
日光性肉芽肿（AG）是一种罕见的皮肤病，全世界仅有几十例报道。它最初被归类为环状肉芽肿的一种变体，现在被认为是一种独特的疾病，其特征是皮肤暴露在阳光下的部位出现无症状的环状斑块。确切的发病机制尚不清楚，但据信是对日光损伤的一种炎症反应，可能涉及受伤的弹性纤维。目前有许多局部和全身治疗方案，但尚未制定具体的治疗指南。我们介绍了一例使用曲安奈德类药物治疗 AG 的病例，患者是一名 64 岁的男性。我们还讨论了最重要的临床和组织学特征以及各种治疗方案。
