Of unknown etiology, acute follicular mucinosis is clinically characterized as an inflammatory disease coursing with more or less infiltrated and scaly plaques, with or without hair loss. In the chronic form, it usually has more numerous and diffuse lesions with variable morphology, from plaques to ulcerated nodules. It is characterized by localized or diffuse deposits of mucin in the skin or hair follicles. Objective: To present an unusual case of primary follicular mucinosis, the importance of differentiation from the secondary form of follicular mucinosis, to discuss the clinical and histopathological aspects used in the diagnosis, its characteristics and classifications as well as the possible therapeutic choices.Descargas
