Molluscum contagiosum eyelid lesions in an HIV-patient

  • Autores: Borges-Costa J, Massa AF, Sacramento-Marques M, Soares-Almeida L
  • Ano de Publicação: 2013
  • Journal: Dermatology Online Journal
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23374952

We report a 41-year-old female patient infected with human immunodeficiency virus who had a CD4 count of 22 cells/mm³. She developed molluscum contagiosum lesions at the right upper eyelid. Skin biopsy was performed to exclude other serious conditions, such as dimorphic fungal infections.
