致编辑- 细胞介导免疫的严重缺陷使艾滋病患者易受包括病毒在内的一系列有害病原体的感染。艾滋病患者的侵袭、损害和破坏被归因于巨细胞病毒、EB病毒、单纯疱疹病毒I型和II型、乳头瘤病毒、乳多空病毒、水痘带状疱疹病毒,以及最近引起传染性软疣(MC)的痘病毒。1 -3在其他健康宿主中,MC是一种常见的、通常自限性的皮肤感染,通常少于20个病灶。自发消退通常需要3至12个月;许多治疗方式可以很容易地缩短这个过程。在成年人中,生殖器、下腹部和大腿上部的受累表明性传播。MC的典型个体病变是有光泽的、珍珠色白色的、中心脐状丘疹,直径3至5 mm。图中所见的35岁女性是一名静脉吸毒者,患有卡氏肺孢子虫和免疫学标志物
To the Editor. —Profound defects in cell-mediated immunity predispose patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) to infections by a pernicious panoply of pathogens, including viruses. Invasion, damage, and destruction of patients with AIDS have been ascribed to cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, herpes simplex virus types I and II, papillomavirus, papovavirus, varicella zoster virus, and, recently, the poxvirus that causes molluscum contagiosum (MC).1-3 In otherwise healthy hosts, MC is a common, usually self-limited, cutaneous infection, often with fewer than 20 lesions. Spontaneous resolution typically takes three to 12 months; many therapeutic modalities can readily shorten this course. In adults, involvement of the genitalia, lower abdomen, and upper thighs indicates sexual transmission. Typical individual lesions of MC are shiny, pearly white, centrally umbilicated papules 3 to 5 mm in diameter. The 35-year-old woman seen in the Figure was an intravenous drug abuser who had hadPneumocystis cariniipneumonia and the immunologic markers
