    Author: Park SK, Lee JY, Kim YH, Kim SY, Cho BK, Houh W.
    Journal: J Dermatol; 1992 Feb; 19(2):119-21. PubMed ID: 1377723.
    Abstract:
    We present three unusual cases of molluscum contagiosum occurring in epidermal cysts. All of them are asymptomatic, elevated, oval nodules diagnosed clinically as epidermal inclusion cyst or prurigo nodularis. Histology showed true epidermal cysts containing molluscum bodies throughout the cyst wall and some type of laminated material within the cyst itself. The lesion, in all three cases developed in the pubic area of young adult men.
