“…No case of immunosuppression was found in our population of children with MC, whereas MC is considered one of the cutaneous manifestations of HIV infection or immunosuppression [10]. Our results are in accordance with a previous study performed in a tertiary hospital [3] where only 1 child with MC (out of 302) had an immunosuppressive disorder.…”

Background: Series regarding the clinical characteristics of molluscum contagiosum (MC) are retrospective and concern small defined populations seen in a hospital setting. Methods: We prospectively studied patients under 15 years of age with MC seen in 25 private dermatology practices in the greater Paris area during 1 year. Results: Six hundred fifty patients were included. The mean age was 6 years. Of the patients, 30.5% had had MC in the past, 53% had 5–20 MC, 43% had a history of atopic dermatitis (AD), 5% were using topical steroids, 25.5% had coexistent AD, 13% had giant MC (>5 mm), 21% had inflammatory MC, and 19% had MC surrounded by eczema. Bathing with siblings was associated with a higher number of MC. A history of AD was associated with the presence of MC surrounded by eczema. The use of topical steroids was associated with a higher risk of relapse. There was no relation between environmental factors (MC in surrounding people, going to the swimming pool, sports practice) and the number of lesions or between environmental factors and the number of recurrences. Conclusion: Atypical lesions are frequent. Bathing with siblings is associated with a higher number of MC. Topical steroid use increases the risk of relapses. AD prevalence is higher than in the general population.

“…This trend-which was more pronounced for kidney than heart transplant recipients-has also been observed for other epithelial malignancies, including actinic keratoses, 24 SCC, 25 and Merkel cell carcinoma, 26 and could be due to the immunosuppressive treatment acting as a tumor promoter. As previously reported, 27 we did not observe any BCC in children who had undergone transplantation; however, one of the younger OTRs with BCC (aged 29 years at the time of BCC diagnosis) had undergone several renal transplantations during childhood, and it can be speculated that such patients may be at higher risk for BCC development because of the longer period of immunosuppression. The preponderance of BCC in men, found in our control group, proved to be even higher in OTRs, further supporting the contention that male sex is a risk factor for skin carcinomas in general.…”

“…However, diarrhea can also occur for other reasons such as infection [27]. Frothy one patients (22.8%) had acne while in Euvrard study 5.5% had acne [28]. Higher rates can be attributed to low awareness of the condition.…”
