Successful topical treatment of focal epithelial hyperplasia (Heck's disease) with interferon-beta.

Abstract	We report the successful topical treatment of focal epithelial hyperplasia (Heck's disease) with interferon-beta (Fiblaferon gel). Topical treatment with interferon-beta appears to be an effective, simple, non-invasive, cheap and low-risk alternative to other invasive or surgical therapeutic modalities.
