Abstract
This case presenting a rare occurrence of Molluscum contagiosum (MC) on the nipple of a nineteen-month-old toddler. Clinical and dermoscopy examination revealed yellowish papule consistent with Molluscum contagiosum (MC). The lesion was extracted using a 30-gauge syringe needle. After two months, a follow-up dermoscopy revealed total clearing. This case illustrates how uncommon MC is in unusual places, like toddler's nipple, and shows how useful dermoscopy is for making diagnosis and treatment easier.
