Extrafacial lupus miliaris disseminatus.

2016 
Lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei (LMDF) is an inflammatory dermatosis characterized by 1- to 3-mm red-to-yellow-brown papules on the central and lateral face, particularly on and around the eyelids. Lesions can occur singly or in crops. The discrete papules appear yellow-brown (“apple-jelly”) on diascopy and as epithelioid cell granulomas histologically, thus, resembling tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, or other granulomatous diseases.1 LMDF classically presents on the face; however, an increasing number of cases are reported with extrafacial involvement.1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 We describe a unique presentation of LMDF characterized predominantly by bilateral axillae involvement.
