Topical sirolimus for treatment of a solitary angiokeratoma.

Isabella Camacho1, Jennifer Scott2, Cynthia DeKlotz2.   

Abstract

Angiokeratomas are benign vascular neoplasms that arise as solitary or multiple lesions, most commonly treated with excision, electrodessication, cryotherapy, or laser therapies. This case presents a young female whose solitary angiokeratoma was treated with topical 1% sirolimus cream, improving the appearance, symptoms, and size of the lesion. Topical sirolimus cream may be a noninvasive treatment option for angiokeratomas with fewer risks than standard therapy that may be feasible and preferable for some patients.
