Description

A 26-year-old man visited our hospital because of erythema on his face, which is resistant to any treatments. Histopathological examination revealed that hair follicles and sebaceous glands are dilated and vacuolated. Deposits in the follicles stained light blue by Alcian blue staining. Therefore, we diagnosed this case as follicular mucinosis. After skin biopsy, his erythema disappeared in 10 days without any treatments. For these 23 years, 43 cases of idiopathic follicular mucinosis have been reported in Japan. We examined the effect of each treatment in these cases including our case.
