Dermatite por molusco contagiosos
1996
Molluscum contagiosum, caused by pox virus, is usually found in apparently normal skin. Sometimes, we can see dermatitis related to molluscum lesions. 321 cases of molluscum contagiosum have been studied. 45 patients had molluscum dermatitis (14 per cent), in its different clinical manifestations. The authors discuss the existence of a dermatitis related to molluscum contagiosum, and that there are diagnosed cases of pityriasis alba and atopic dermatitis, which are in fact, molluscum dermatitis, with molluscum papules clinically inapparent. The authors suggest the possibility of molluscum dermatitis be caused by delayed hipersensibility.
