ABSTRACT
Granuloma annulare is frequently described in association with numerous systemic conditions and is often refractory to treatment. This retrospective review explored a large patient cohort to further strengthen associated comorbid conditions and assess response to different treatments in patients with granuloma annulare. This study found that patients with granuloma annulare frequently carried a diagnosis of hypothyroidism. Additionally, the highest rate of improvement in any treatment category was seen with pentoxifylline use. Thus, should be further explored as a first-line therapeutic option in the treatment of granuloma annulare.
