Abstract

We report the association of common variable immunodeficiency syndrome with epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) manifesting as flat warts and squamous cell carcinomas in a 21-year-old Hispanic woman. Human papillomavirus (HPV) typing by polymerase chain reaction using an EV-HPV primer system, cloning, and sequencing detected HPV-8 and HPV-23 DNAs in the biopsy sample. Our case is the second reported case of common variable immunodeficiency syndrome associated with EV.
