Familial Annular Erythema Effectively Responded to Phototherapy: A Case Report of an Extremely Rare Entity and Literature Review
This extremely rare entity is not known to be associated with other organ involvement, apart from the skin. It poses diagnostic difficulty as it resembles other annular conditions during infancy. The presence of similar cases within her family underscores the genetic component of this condition, warranting further investigation and discussion. Possible effective therapeutic options include phototherapy.
