[Intralesional rituximab for refractory granuloma faciale].
A 60-year-old man presented with refractory granuloma faciale. After unsuccessful treatment with dapsone, hydroxychloroquine, and radiotherapy, treatment with intralesional rituximab was initiated. This led to a steady improvement in the lesions without serious side effects. The case shows that rituximab can be a treatment option for refractory cases of granuloma faciale, especially in the context of IgG 4-related autoimmune disease.
