“…Concerning the type of virus, HPV 16/18 is detected with the same percentage in the two groups of patients (41% in immunocompetent and 42% in immunosuppressed patients), HPV 6/11 is detected in only 11% of immunocompetent patients as compared to 37% of immunosuppressed patients. This last result is in agreement with reports of the literature showing a high rate of this type of mucous HPV (ordinarily non-oncogenic) in tumours of transplanted patients [44, 46]. We did not find any study in the literature comparing the rates of HPV detection specifically in BD for immunocompetent and immunosuppressed patients.…”

“…Thus, in kidney or heart transplant patients, HPV has been found in skin tumours, with a great variety of types [1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33], often with viral co-infections (cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, etc.) in many cases [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 41, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47]. Several studies have reported a high prevalence of HPV DNA in transplant squamous cell carcinoma ranging from 69 to 91% [1, 2, 3, 7, 9, 11, 41].…”

“…However, in agreement with the findings of other studies [10, 12, 13], HPV-16 seems to be present in only a small number of cutaneous SCCs and is therefore not generally involved in SCC development. There are a few reports on the presence of HPV-6 and HPV-11 in SCC samples [12, 13, 28]. HPV-6 was also detected in basal-cell carcinoma and keratoacanthoma lesions [11, 14], but, similarly to HPV-16, in all studies only a small number of specimens was positive.…”

“…The presence of HPV 6/11 in benign or malignant skin lesions of transplant patients has been reported only rarely [28]. HPV 6 [3], 11 [7], and both types together [28] have also been noted in malignant skin lesions of nonimniunosuppressed subjects.…”

“…HPV 6 [3], 11 [7], and both types together [28] have also been noted in malignant skin lesions of nonimniunosuppressed subjects. It is noteworthy that, in our study, HPV 6/11 was not found in any benign lesion in the control population.…”
