Abstract

We have treated extensive lentigo maligna in two elderly patients with Imiquimod 5% (Aldara). It was applied 3 times weekly, for 3 to 5 months. Clinical and histological remission was observed over 13 months of follow-up care. Tolerance was good. We suggest that topical imiquimod could be an interesting therapeutic alternative.
