Multiple adult xanthogranuloma: case report of successful treatment with CO2 Laser

Abstract

Multiple adult xanthogranuloma is a rare and late variant of Juvenile xanthogranuloma, a non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. It usually corresponds to a single lesion in adults, and the manifestation of multiples lesions is uncommon. We report a case of multiple adult xanthogranuloma, with Isotretinoin therapy failure and optimal response to CO2 Laser treatment in the surgical mode.
