Akhras V et al. - The authors report a case of superficial granulomatous pyoderma (SGP) treated successfully with infliximab. A 71-year-old woman developed erythema, erosions and cribriform scarring in the right periorbital area following enucleation of the right eye. Histology showed three-layered granulomas typical of SGP. The patient's disease was unusual in that it failed to respond to a wide variety of immunosuppressants and this condition is rarely reported to affect the face.
