Demonstration of human papillomavirus type 2 in a verrucous carcinoma of the foot

J C Noel et al. Dermatology. 1993.

Abstract

This report describes one case of verrucous carcinoma of the foot containing human papillomavirus type 2 DNA which was detected by the polymerase chain reaction DNA amplification method. Our findings suggest that human papillomavirus type 2, which was classically associated with palmoplantar warts, may also play a role in the pathogenesis of peripheral verrucous carcinoma.
