2 African patients (sisters) suffering from lepromatous leprosy had epidermodysplasia verruciformis. Both patients had in addition recalcitrant superficial fungal infections and extensive relapsing scabies. The question is raised whether a generalized impairment of cell-mediated immunity, found in lepromatous leprosy, predisposes towards other particularly viral infections.
2名患有瘤型麻风的非洲患者(姐妹)患有疣状表皮发育不良。两名患者还患有顽固性浅表真菌感染和广泛复发性疥疮。由此引发了一个问题,即在瘤型麻风病中发现的细胞介导免疫的全身性损害是否会使患者易患其他特别是病毒感染。
