Abstract
We report a case of epithelioid granuloma which occurred at the site of a previous cosmetic eyebrow tattooing. A biopsy specimen showed the organized appearance of epithelioid cell granulomas containing little pigment as well as occasional giant cells, mainly of Langhans' type, thus showing the characteristic features of granulomatous hypersensitivity. With the use of energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis and inductively coupled plasma spectrometry, the presence of copper, iron, cobalt, and chromium was demonstrated.
