Acquired epidermodysplasia verruciformis occurring in a renal transplant recipient.
Acquired epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EDV) is a rare condition occurring in patients with depressed cellular immunity, particularly individuals with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Acquired EDV is less commonly reported in recipients of stem cell or solid organ transplantation. This condition typically manifests within 5 years of initial immunosuppression and can present as multiple hypopigmented to red, tinea versicolor-like macules or as multiple verrucous, flat-topped papules distributed over the trunk, arms, and legs. Human papillomavirus (HPV) types 5 and 8 are the most commonly isolated EDV-HPV subtypes as well as the most oncogenic subtypes, carrying the greatest risk for malignant transformation into squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). We present the case of a 44-year-old renal transplant recipient who developed multiple hypopigmented papules on the chest and neck with histopathology showing characteristic changes of EDV.
