Cureus
August 2024
General Dermatology, Naval Medical Center Portsmouth, Portsmouth, USA.
Article Synopsis
- - Neutrophilic figurate erythema (NFE) is a rare skin condition that resembles erythema annulare centrifugum (EAC) but is characterized by a neutrophil-dominated inflammatory response in the skin.
- - A case study of a 32-year-old military male showed a chronic skin rash that started five years ago, resistant to multiple antifungal treatments, with no identifiable triggers or improvement post-deployment.
- - Diagnosis of NFE can be challenging due to its rarity, with only 15 known cases, and it may require specific treatment focusing on anti-neutrophil therapy rather than standard antifungal options.
