The first observation in Occident of "eosinophilic pustular folliculitis (Ofuji)" is reported. The condition is characterized by pruritic follicular sterile papulopustules on indurated erythematous plaque in the face. They extended centrifugally and the plaque proceeds with remission and exacerbations with leukocytosis and numerous eosinophils. Histological features are pustular folliculitis from the ostium to the sebaceous gland, chiefly composed of polymorphs and many eosinophiles. The treatment are corticosteroids by long-term. It is the first case studied by electron microscopy.
