Abstract

Granulomatous rosacea is considered as the only true rosacea variant. Granuloma formation is a histologic feature of this condition. The clinical features of granulomatous rosacea include yellow-brown or red papules or nodules that are monomorphic and located on the cheeks and periorificial facial skin. The background facial skin is otherwise normal. Other signs and symptoms of rosacea are not required to make a diagnosis of granulomatous rosacea. We report on a case of granulomatous rosacea that was localized on the both eyelids as an unusual clinical presentation.
