Clin Case Rep. 2024 Nov 18;12(11):e9320. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.9320. eCollection 2024 Nov.

Abstract

Trichodysplasia spinulosa is a rare dermatological condition caused by a virus that predominantly affects immunosuppressed individuals. In this patient population, including organ transplant recipients, it is essential to maintain a high index of suspicion for possible infectious causes of persistent dermatologic conditions. Early diagnosis can facilitate treatment and help avoid disease progression and complications.
