Abstract:
Serine/threonine kinase 4 deficiency (STK4 or MST1, OMIM:614868) is an autosomal recessive (AR) combined immunodeficiency that can present with skin lesions such as epidermodysplasia verruciformis-like lesions (EVLL). Herein, we describe a 17-year-old male patient born from consanguineous parents presenting with recurrent respiratory infections, verruciform plaques, poikiloderma, chronic benign lymphoproliferation, and Sjögren syndrome with suspected interstitial lymphocytic pneumonia.

Papillary Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.
Papillary Layer
The papillary layer is made of loose, areolar connective tissue, which means the collagen...
