Molluscum contagiosum in HIV-infected patients.
The clinical presentation of molluscum contagiosum is described in detail in 16 HIV-infected patients. Atypical facial lesions with either multiple small papules or giant nodular tumors prevailed in patients with AIDS or AIDS-related complex. A theoretical basis for the atypical localization of the disease is lacking.
