Abstract
Viral infections can cause severe morbidity in immunosuppressed cancer patients. A case of rapidly enlarging, biopsy-documented oral verruca vulgaris in a patient undergoing conditioning chemotherapy prior to bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is described. Human papillomavirus infections in immunosuppressed patients are discussed.
