[Gardasil®-induced erythema nodosum]
Abstract
Erythema nodosum is a panniculitis occurring more frequently in young women. We report a 16-year-old woman who presented with erythema nodosum that occurred following Gardasil® administration (vaccine against HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18) and that is proposed to young female. This adverse effect is not a contraindication to the HPV vaccination because its benefit against the oncogene risk of Papillomavirus is documented.
