Abstract |
A 61-year-old woman developed multiple and clustered eruptive epidermoid cysts at the site of treatment of a basal cell carcinoma located on her nose with imiquimod 5% cream (5 times/week for 6 weeks). Clearing was achieved after topical treatment with tretinoin 0.025% cream (1 application/day for 1 month).
