Monogenic etiologies of persistent human papillomavirus infections: a comprehensive systematic review
S Biglari et al, Genetics in Medicine, November 2023

From the abstract: " Persistent human papillomavirus infection (PHPVI) causes cutaneous, anogenital, and mucosal warts. Cutaneous warts include common warts, Treeman syndrome, and epidermodysplasia verruciformis, among others. Although more reports of monogenic predisposition to PHPVI have been published with the development of genomic technologies, genetic testing is rarely incorporated into clinical assessments. In this systematic review, we found that PHPVI has at least 83 monogenic etiologies and a genetic diagnosis is essential for effective management."
