  • Title: A case of viral warts with particular fibrillar intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies.
    Author: Egawa K, Honda Y, Ono T, Kitasato H.
    Journal: Dermatology; 2000; 200(3):275-8. PubMed ID: 10828642.
    Abstract:
    A new type of skin wart was observed in a Japanese patient. It was characterized by intracytoplasmic inclusions with a 'fibrillar' structure which were distinct from previously described wart-associated inclusions. The papillomavirus (HPV)-group-specific antigen could be detected, but DNA hybridization and PCR amplification using probes or PCR primers specific for the main skin HPV genotypes (including HPV-63 which is also associated with 'filamentous' inclusions) were negative. We consider that this cytopathic effect could correspond to an HPV genotype which has not yet been characterized.
