We report three cases of 54, 58 and 65-year-old patients presenting annular lesions with centrifugal migratory extension. They occur exclusively on sun-exposed areas. In two cases, the lesions were multiple. ⋯ These three cases illustrate the typical features of O'Brien's actinic granuloma. Relationship between this actinic granuloma and granuloma annulare occurring on sun-exposed areas on one side, and necrobiosis lipoidica, Miescher's granuloma and granuloma multiforme on the other side, are discussed. On the basis of some clinical and histological patterns, the autonomy of O'Brien's actinic granuloma appears to be established.
