Abstract:
Human papillomavirus (HPV), a DNA virus, infects basal keratinocytes and causes common warts and as well as malignancies of skin and mucous membranes. Although many treatment options are available, persistent HPV infections are common among transplant recipients. Herein, we present a patient with a 15-year history of treatment-resistant warts that regressed during COVID-19 (Coronavirus disease 2019) treatment.
