Eosinophilic annular erythema is a rare, benign, recurrent condition characterized by annular skin lesions, tissue eosinophilia, and resistance to a variety of treatments. There are fewer than 30 cases reported in the English literature, 7 of which are in children. We present a case of recurrent eosinophilic annular erythema in an adolescent that was successfully treated with dupilumab, an interleukin‐4 receptor alpha antagonist.
