Generalized Granuloma annulare and non-hodgkin's lymphoma

Granuloma annulare (GA) is a common, infammatory disorder, which is usually considered to have a benign progression. The generalized variant of GA is relatively rare and has been reported in association with diabetes, HIV and some malignant neoplasias, such as breast, cer- vical, lung, prostate, stomach and ovarian carcinoma. In particular, the relatively rare association of generalized GA with malignant lymphomas is not well-recognized. We describe here the presence of both generalized GA and Hodgkin’s disease (HD) in a 64-year-old woman.
