Despite its rarity, epidermodysplasia verruciformis was addressed in depth in recent literature. Patients are afflicted by persistent human papillomavirus infections and develop cutaneous malignancies more frequently and younger than in the general population. The disease is therefore considered a model for a viral role in cutaneous oncogenesis, although implication is controversial. We focus on recent findings in genetics, highlight multiple viewpoints regarding the role of epidermodysplasia verruciformis-human papillomavirus in nonmelanoma skin cancer and other diseases, and discuss treatment strategies.
