Description : Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) is a rare genodermatosis associated with a high risk of skin cancer (Ramoz et al., 2000). EV results from an abnormal susceptibility to specific related human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes and to the oncogenic potential of some of them, mainly HPV5. Infection with EV-associated HPV leads to the early development of disseminated flat wart-like and pityriasis versicolor-like lesions. Patients are unable to reject their lesions, and cutaneous Bowen carcinomas in situ and invasive squamous cell carcinomas develop in about half of them, mainly on sun-exposed areas.;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the transmembrane channel-like 6 gene (TMC6, 605828.0001): Caused by mutation in the transmembrane channel-like 8 gene (TMC8, 605829.0001);

Neoplasia : Basal cell carcinoma; Cutaneous Bowen carcinomas;

Laboratory abnormalities : Epidermal cell vacuolization;

Prefixed ID : #226400;
