INTRODUCTION: Molluscum contagiosum is a viral infection of the skin that is
spread from direct contact, either via person to person by touching affected
lesions or innocuously via fomites. The condition is often socially stigmatizing,
motivating patients to seek treatment. There are many anecdotal remedies, but
none have been overwhelmingly effective in controlled clinical trials. CASE
REPORT: A 16-year-old girl presented with approximately 75 lesions on her inner
thighs as a result of friction from an athletic uniform. She tried
over-the-counter antibiotic ointment and topical steroids for several weeks
without improvement, and was concerned at the rate of spread of the lesions,
along with the social implications. CONCLUSION: The topical
povidone-iodine/dimethylsulfoxide system is very effective in eradicating
molluscum contagiosum. This novel combination warrants further investigation in
randomized, controlled trials to further elucidate its clinical utility.
