Annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma (AEGCG) is a rare granulomatous skin disease of unclear pathogenesis which belongs to the group of disorders in the skin and elastic fibers with similar clinical features of granuloma annulare (GA). This case report is intended to describe a rare hybrid pattern in histopathology demonstrating coexistence of AEGCG and GA. An endocrine disease, such as diabetes mellitus (DM), could contribute to the coexistence of both lesions, and this possibility must be included in the medical investigation.

Objective Examination of intervertebral disc (IVD) regeneration in an ovine annular lesion model. Hypothesis Sulfation motifs are important functional determinants in glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Previous studies have correlated 3-B-3(−) and 7-D-4 chondroitin sulfate (CS) motifs in tissues undergoing morphogenetic transition in development. We hypothesize that these motifs may also be expressed in degenerate IVDs and may represent a reparative response. Design Induction of disc degeneration by 5 mm or 6 × 20 mm lesions in the annulus fibrosus (AF) over 6 or 3 to 6 months postoperation (PO). Tissue sections were stained with toluidine blue–fast green, 3-B-3(−) and 7-D-4 CS-sulfation motifs were immunolocalized in 3-month PO 6 × 20 mm lesion IVDs. Sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG), 3-B-3(−), and 7-D-4 epitopes were quantitated by ELISIA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent inhibition assay) in extracts of AF (lesion site and contralateral half) and nucleus pulposus (NP) 0, 3, and 6 months PO. Results Collagenous overgrowth of lesions occurred in the outer AF. Chondroid metaplasia in ~20% of the 6 × 20 mm affected discs resulted in integration of an outgrowth of NP tissue with the inner AF lamellae preventing propagation of the lesion. 3-B-3(−) and 7-D-4 CS sulfation motifs were immunolocalized in this chondroid tissue. ELISIA quantified CS sulfation motifs demonstrating an increase 3 to 6 months PO in the AF lesion and a reduction in sulfated GAG not evident in the contralateral AF. Conclusions (1) Outer annular lesions underwent spontaneous repair. (2) Chondroid metaplasia of the inner 6 × 20 mm defect prevented its propagation suggesting an apparent reparative response.
