Multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma mainly affects middle‐aged women, and usually presents as grouped reddish‐brown papules. Hislopathological features include the presence of multinucleate cells in reticular dermis, numerous dilated dermal vessels. The lesions are benign, may persist for years. Treatment is needed cosmetic reasons. We report successful use argon laser to treat two patients who had angiohistiocytoma.
