Tattoo and warts: Efficacy of topical immunotherapy

Luca Fania

Istituto Dermopatico dell’Immacolata-FLMM, Italy

n recent decades, the practice of tattooing has greatly diffused

and is performed worldwide. During this practice, many

infections can transmit as Human papillomavirus that can

present after weeks of months with viral warts. The inoculation

of the dye can promote an altered local immune response area,

named immunocompromised district that can lead, after long

latency period from the practice of the tattoo, to cutaneous

disorders. We present two cases of multiple viral verruca

localized on polychrome tattoo that were performed many

years before. This skin infection has been successfully treated

with contact immunotherapy that is squaric acid dibutylester

(SADBE), without alterations of the tattoos.
