ABSTRACT
Papular mucinosis is a rare, papular eruption caused by the dermal deposition of mucin. Three clinical subtypes have been described. The evolution is usually chronic and no effective treatment is available. Papular mucinosis has recently been reported in patients with AIDS. We describe another case of papular mucinosis in an HIV patient with an uncommonly rapid, total regression.
