Title: Follicular molluscum contagiosum. Author: Ive FA. Journal: Br J Dermatol; 1985 Oct; 113(4):493-5. PubMed ID: 4063184. Abstract: Four cases are reported in which atypical molluscum contagiosum lesions were found, arising from follicular epithelium.

This is the first description of true follicular involvement in molluscum contagiosum.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
