The authors report a case of recurrent folliculitis occurring in a 31 year old man. Histologic examination revealed an inflammatory cell infiltration composed predominantly of eosinophils. The Authors hypothesize that these features are consistent with a diagnosis of Ofuji disease and review the main characteristics of this rare clinical entity.
