Confluent and reticulate papillomatosis of Gougerot-Carteaud treated with azithromycin with excellent results
| Resumo: | Abstract Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis (CRP) of Gougerot and Carteaud is a rare dermatological condition characterized by diffuse papillomatosis with a reticulated and confluent pattern. It is more commonly observed in individuals with darker skin and can cause significant aesthetic and psychological discomfort due to its persistent and expansive lesion patterns. This condition is often resistant to conventional treatments, making the search for alternative therapies an area of interest. We present a case of CRP treated with azithromycin, highlighting the efficacy and safety of this antibiotic in managing the condition. |
