Successful treatment of a high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia with imiquimod, with vulvar pemphigus as a side effect.

G Campagne1, M Roca, A Martínez.   

Abstract

Imiquimod modulates the immune response, and is a new approach for treatment of papillomavirus-associated lesions, although it has not been approved for the treatment of intraepithelial neoplasia. We present a case of a patient treated with imiquimod on account of high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia in the vulva and other locations. The posterior biopsies confirm the absence of lesions but show drug-induced pemphigus as a side effect.
