Abstract

This document is a letter to the editor published in the Journal of Cutaneous Medicine & Surgery. The letter discusses the connection between psoriasis and human papillomavirus (HPV) and aims to provide a comprehensive review of the relationship between the two conditions. The authors conducted a systematic review of existing literature and found that the occurrence of HPV in patients with psoriasis varies in different studies. They suggest that a dysregulation in immune response may be a key factor linking the two conditions. The authors also discuss potential treatment implications and call for further research to better understand the immune connections between HPV and psoriasis. [Extracted from the article]
