  10. 73-year-old male with a history of recurring granulomatous and necrotic lesions of uncertain etiology. A thigh biopsy from 2008 was read as “lichenoid and granulomatous dermatitis with eosinophils,� and other biopsies (from arm, trunk, and thigh) from 2009 as spongiotic dermatitis with eosinophils. On 1/11/2013, two biopsies were performed: one from the back, which was a “mature� lesion, and another from the right arm, which was a “new� lesion. The one that is shown here is the new lesion from the arm. The “mature� lesion showed ulceration, and had a more dense lymphocytic and histiocytic proliferation.<br /><br />Case posted by Dr. Hafeez Diwan
