AbstractSummary Papular elastolytic giant cell granuloma is an unusual variant of annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma. Its rarity makes the assessment of the real efficacy of any treatment difficult, as spontaneous remission is possible. We report a case whose interest, besides the rarity of the occurrence, rests in the pure papular expression of the clinical features, the association with a monoclonal gammopathy and the apparent efficacy of topical tacrolimus.
