Description
Beatriz Vilela and co-authors report a rare skin illness in a man with liver disease. Their 2026 letter deals with eosinophilic annular erythema. It causes ring shaped red plaques and a dense mix of a white blood cell type in the skin. It is harmless in itself and was first described in children. Adult cases occur at times with long term illness or cancer.
The patient was a man aged eighty nine with liver scarring from hepatitis B. Ring shaped plaques arose on his neck, arms, and thighs during a hospital stay. They had central clearing and mild itch. He recalled a like rash a year before that cleared on its own. A skin sample showed the expected cell mix, with no vessel damage. The rash cleared in four weeks with a skin cream alone.
