Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Oral Medicine
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Verruciform xanthomas (VX) are uncommon mucocutaneous lesions.
  • They can occur independently or alongside other health issues.

Observation:

  • A case of widespread VX affecting oral, cutaneous, and genital areas is presented.
  • The patient had no identifiable underlying cause for the condition.

Findings:

  • Standard treatments like salicylic acid, corticosteroids, antibiotics, and chlorhexidine were ineffective.
  • Serial shave excisions provided cosmetic improvement and patient satisfaction.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the rarity and unknown etiology of disseminated VX.
  • Further investigation is crucial for developing targeted and effective treatment strategies.
