The clinical picture of granulomatous rosacea is represented by the monomorphic papules, which tends to be yellow on dermotoscopy. Treatment of this variant of rosacea is difficult, the first-line therapy of rosacea is ineffective. The article presents two cases of granulomatous rosacea similar in clinical picture, gender and age of patients, but with different approaches of treatment. Both patients were prescribed therapy with 0.1% tacrolimus ointment 2 times a day for a month,10 procedures of photodynamic therapy. One of the patients was planning a pregnancy, in which case treatment with isotretinoin was excluded, and the other patient agreed to systemic therapy with isotretinoin. Systemic isotretinoin has been shown to be effective in a patient with granulomatous rosacea and it has been achieved long-term remission at a dose of less than 0.2 mg/kg body weight for 6 months.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Гранулематозный вариант розацеа — редкая форма розацеа, которая характеризуется особенной клинической картиной и отличными от традиционной розацеа подходами к ведению пациентов. Клиническая картина гранулематозной розацеа представлена мономорфными папулами, реже папуло-пустулами, при диаскопии которых определяется желтый цвет. Лечение этого варианта розацеа представляет сложности, так как препараты первой линии выбора терапии розацеа чаще малоэффективны. В статье приведены два случая гранулематозной розацеа, сходные по клинической картине, полу и возрасту пациентов, но с разными исходами в зависимости от применяемой терапии. Обеим пациенткам назначали терапию 0,1% мазь такролимус 2 раза/день в течение месяца,10 процедур фотодинамической терапии. Одна из пациенток планировала беременность, в этом случае лечение изотретиноином исключалось, а другая пациентка дала согласие на системную терапию изотретиноином. Системный изотретиноин показал свою эффективность и позволил достичь длительной ремиссии в дозе менее 0,2 мг/кг массы тела в течение 6 месяцев у пациентки с гранулематозным вариантом розацеа.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>granulomatous rosacea</kwd><kwd>isotretinoin</kwd><kwd>case report</kwd><kwd>photodynamic therapy</kwd><kwd>tacrolimus</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>гранулематозный вариант розацеа</kwd><kwd>изотретиноин</kwd><kwd>клинический случай</kwd><kwd>фотодинамическая терапия</kwd><kwd>такролимус</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="en">the manuscript was prepared and published by financing at the place of work of the author</funding-statement><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">рукопись подготовлена на личные средства автора</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Wilkin J, Dahl M, Detmar M, Drake L, Feinstein A, Odom R, et al.
