Author(s): D. Ramachandra Reddy, R. Prathap, Abisheik Sharma and Kashyap PallaviD. Ramachandra Reddy, R. Prathap, Abisheik Sharma and Kashyap Pallavi
Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is caused by the Molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV), genus Molluscipoxvirus, is a member of Pox virus family confined to human and monkey . The virus can be cultured on both human epidermis and amniotic epithelium. The initial lesion is a 1-2 mm centrally umblicated papule. In association with HIV- AIDS irrespective of the age of the patient, these small papules become canon ball like, sometimes even 5 cm in diameter, occasionally found hanging from a pedicle on the face. This is generally taken as a diagnostic factor without warranting any serological evidence. The biopsy of the Molluscum shows characteristic Henderson-Peterson Molluscum bodies. These are the tiny elementary bodies within the Molluscum and known to be transmitting the disease once the papule has been opened. .. View More»
