Article Synopsis
  • Granuloma annulare (GA) is a non-infectious skin condition that can become widespread in some patients; this study focused on those with disseminated GA in a German hospital.
  • A total of 239 patients were studied, with 33 having confirmed disseminated GA, predominantly affecting women around the age of 57, and many reporting little to no symptoms.
  • Treatment options included glucocorticoids and phototherapy, but only a small percentage achieved remission, highlighting the need for more effective clinical trials for new therapies.
