ABSTRACT
HIV-associated eosinophilic folliculitis is characterized by recurrent crops of severely-pruritic follicular papules, pustules and plaques that occur mainly on the face, trunk and upper extremities of AIDS patients. This disease is distinguished from Ofuji's disease by severe pruritus, leukopenia, sparing of the palm and sole and a good response to phototherapy. Up to now, only three such cases have been reported in the Korean literature. A 55-year-old man, who was confirmed as being HIV positive 6 months previously, presented with severely-pruritic, erythematous pinhead to half pea sized papules and nodules on the face, neck and anterior chest. The skin biopsy from a nodular lesion on the face revealed perifolliculitis with a predominant eosinophilic infiltrate.
