Abstract
Generalized verrucosis (GV) is a group of immunodeficiency disorders accompanied by widespread human papillomavirus infection. We revisit two cases of GV due to congenital interleukin-7 deficiency successfully treated with systemic retinoids. We also present a review of the literature on the use of systemic retinoids to treat GV. Our review suggests that systemic retinoids are a safe and effective option for managing recalcitrant wart lesions in cases of GV.
