We describe a 75-year-old man demonstrating the florid clinical features of actinic granuloma of O'Brien. This rare disfiguring condition is believed to result from a granulomatous reaction of the dermis to solar-induced elastosis and is poorly responsive to topical steroids. Twelve weeks' treatment with isotretinoin prevented the development of new granulomata and produced almost complete resolution of established lesions.
