  • Title: Congenital juvenile xanthogranuloma with ulceration: a pediatric case report.
    Author: Logue ME, Elwood H, Smidt A.
    Journal: Dermatol Online J; 2017 Jul 15; 23(7):. PubMed ID: 29469704.
    Abstract:
    Congenital juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) is an uncommon diagnosis and even more rarely presents with ulceration. We report such a case in a two-week-old girl. Biopsy was performed to rule out any concerning entities. Adequate treatment was provided with topical petrolatum and occasional miconozole or zinc oxide; the mass spontaneously regressed. Because congenital JXG has an excellent prognosis, insight into unique presentations such as this may provide useful information and avoid unnecessary surgical interventions.
