Abstract
-
Winkelmann granuloma is a very rare disorder characterized by histologic findings of perhaps[ic] infiltration, collagen degeneration, and granulomatous inflammation, which usually show palisading features. A number of diseases, especially systemic immunoreactive diseases, are associated with this disorder. We describe a focal neutrophilic necrosis : type of Winkelmann granuloma associated with hypothy- roidism and rheumatoid arthritis.
