Epiderodysplasia verucifornis is a familial disease (inherited defect in cellular immunity, specifically T cells), and is mostly associated with HPV 3 and 10, as well as macular plaques that can give rise to non-metastatic tumors. The warts you see in this disease are either flat or reddish-brown plaques. Also, peeps with this disease don't live past 30 b/c they die of various other things.

I have a test on this tomorrow, otherwise I wouldn't know what the hell you were talking about! :laugh:
