Seroprevalence of trichodysplasia spinulosa-associated polyomavirus in Japan

Journal of Clinical Virology, 2015
Trichodysplasia spinulosa-associated polyomavirus (TSV) was identified in, and shown to be the probable cause of, trichodysplasia spinulosa, a rare skin disease. To date, serological analyses have revealed that TSV infection is common among adults in the general population of Europe and Australia.

Ultrastructural and molecular confirmation of the trichodysplasia spinulosa‐associated polyomavirus in biopsies of patients with trichodysplasia spinulosa

Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, 2012
Trichodysplasia spinulosa (TS) is a rare and only recently characterized cutaneous disease occurring in immunocompromised patients. The disease is characterized by spiny follicular papules on clinical examination and by the presence of viral inclusions at ultrastructural examination.

Virus‐Associated Trichodysplasia Spinulosa

Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, 2004
Background:  Virus‐associated trichodysplasia spinulosa (VATD) is a relatively new entity associated with a distinctive histologic picture of distended follicles with excessive production of inner root sheath material. Only two patients have thus far been reported. Both had developed the condition after a kidney transplant.

Trichodysplasia spinulosa is characterized by active polyomavirus infection

Journal of Clinical Virology, 2012
Recently a new polyomavirus was identified in a patient with trichodysplasia spinulosa (TS), a rare follicular skin disease of immunocompromised patients characterized by facial spines and overgrowth of inner root sheath cells. Seroepidemiological studies indicate that TSPyV is ubiquitous and latently infects 70% of the healthy individuals.To ...
