摘要
We report a case of an immunocompromised 38-year-old Asian patient who developed several hundred atypical lesions of molluscum on her face and neck, resistant to conventional treatment. These lesions were treated successfully by potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser without pigmentary disturbance. KTP laser is a novel treatment for molluscum contagiosum.
