Abstract

Two patients with multiple angiokeratomas on genitalia and thighs, one with Fabry's disease and one with Fordyce's disease, were treated with copper vapour laser light of 578 nm wavelength. The result was desirable, with destruction and disappearance of the lesions and minimal scarring and posttreatment hyper- or hypopigmentation.
