Resumo: Molluscum contagiosum is a cutaneous and mucosal viral infection that can rarely affect the oral cavity and lips. The aim of the present study is to report a case of molluscum contagiosum affecting the lips. A 53 year old female was referred for evaluation of multiple papules on the skin and lips. Oral and cutaneous examination revealed the presence of multiple yellowish papules in the skin of the shoulders and neck and in the vermillion border. Clinical diagnosis included molluscum contagiosum and impetigo and a biopsy of a lip lesion was performed under local anesthesia. Hematoxylin and eosin stained histological slides showed a localized proliferation of the stratified squamous epithelium with keratinocytes presenting nuclear basophilic inclusions, compatible with molluscum contagiosum. The patient was submitted to surgical removal of additional lesions and remains in clinical follow-up.
