GARAIS, Josefina A et al. Idiopathic facial aseptic granuloma: A case report. Arch. argent. pediatr. [online]. 2019, vol.117, n.1, pp.e56-e58. ISSN 0325-0075.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5546/aap.2019.e56.

Idiopathic facial aseptic granuloma is a childhood condition characterized by asymptomatic erythematous-violaceous nodules, often confused with abscesses. Its pathogenesis is unknown, but some authors have postulated its relationship with infantile rosacea. We present a case of a patient with a clinical diagnosis of idiopathic facial aseptic granuloma, with ocular involvement and a good response to oral metronidazole treatment.
