  • Title: Clinical appearance, differential diagnoses and therapeutical options of chondrodermatitis nodularis chronica helicis Winkler.
    Author: Wagner G, Liefeith J, Sachse MM.
    Journal: J Dtsch Dermatol Ges; 2011 Apr; 9(4):287-91. PubMed ID: 21276202.
    Abstract:
    The article on chondrodermatitis nodularis chronica helicis summarizes various clinical pictures and differential diagnoses of this entity. This lesion is usually characterized by a solid or cystic nodule but ulcerations or crusts may also occur. The most common differential diagnoses include benign or malignant tumours, which are often confused with chondrodermatitis nodularis chronica helicis. The characteristic pain associated with this condition may serve as an important diagnostic clue in order to rule out other differential diagnoses. The therapy of chondrodermatitis nodularis chronica helices encompasses several conservative as well as surgical treatment options.
