Abstract

Previous studies have demonstrated that human papillomaviruses (HPVs) of the beta genus can contribute to the onset of cutaneous carcinomas in organ transplant recipients. In contrast, there are limited data related to the oncogenicity of alpha (α)-HPVs in the skin. Herein, we explore the characteristics of three cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas presenting α-HPV infection occurring in patients with HIV, in order to determine the role of α-HPV in these skin cancers.
