The correct answer is A. The subcutaneous variant is most common in children.

Granuloma annulare is the entity pictured. Subtypes include localized GA, generalized GA, macular GA, subcutaneous GA, and perforating GA. The subcutaneous variant is most common in children; there is often a history of trauma to the area.

Localized lesions never ulcerate, and heal without scarring; 75% of localized lesions clear within 2 years. The perforating variant classically involves the dorsa of the hands. Diabetes is present in 20% of patients with the generalized variant. Localized is most common in adults and generalized typically only occurs in adults.
