Date of Publication: 2002. | Abstract: | A 32-year-old woman with linear morphoea of her left arm was noted to have a yellowish atrophic plaque within the linear morphoea. Review of photographs taken on her first visit 3 years previously revealed that the lesion had been present and had increased in size over the 3 years. Necrobiotic xanthogranuloma (NXG) was diagnosed on biopsy. Paraproteinaemia was not detected. The NXG was surgically excised and it has not recurred in 12 months of follow up. | DOI: | http://monash.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1046/j.1440-0960.2002.00553.x | PubMed URL: | 11869210 [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=11869210] | ISSN: | 0004-8380 | URI: | https://repository.monashhealth.org/monashhealthjspui/handle/1/33095 | Type: | Article | Type of Clinical Study or Trial: | Case series or case report |
