ABSTRACT
A5 years-old male patient with xeroderma pigmentoso (XP), without neurological clinical involvement,
with multiple basal cell carcinomas and a pyogenic granuloma.
He was treated with 5% imiquimod cream once a day, 5 times per week during 21 weeks and photoprotection with
physical blockers SPF60, with marked improvement in lentigo and actinic keratosis, but the surgical excision of
the basal cell carcinomas was necessary.
We emphazise the importante of both, the education to obtain proper photoprotection and the severe psicosocial
and economical consecuences of this genodermatosis.
