Erythematous, Edematous Plaques – Let’s Diagnose

A 66-year-old man went to the doctor after experiencing an extremely itchy rash for the preceding 2 months. On examination, numerous sizable erythematous and edematous plaques with surrounding hyperpigmented patches were noted on his trunk. Some plaques had an arcuate configuration. The patient’s medical history was unremarkable except for a history of thymoma.

Is it erythema gyratum repens, eosinophilic annular erythema, subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus, or glucagonoma syndrome?
