Giant molluscum contagiosum with preseptal cellulitis.

Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is a benign cutaneous viral infection commonly affecting children, sexually active adults, immunocompromised individuals, and patients on immunosuppressive therapy. Giant periorbital MC lesions with preseptal cellulitis are rare. We present 2 such pediatric cases. Case 1 was a 9-month-old boy with an enlarging left upper eyelid mass and preseptal cellulitis. MC was confirmed on histopathology, and surgical excision was curative. Case 2 was an 18-month-old girl with a right lower eyelid ulcerating mass and preseptal cellulitis. She was managed with antibiotics and surgical excision.
