Chapter 2 Acyanotic Defects  NOTES  POXVIRIDAE MICROBE OVERVIEW Genetic material ▪ Linear double-stranded DNA  Replication ▪ In host cell cytoplasm  Taxonomy ▪ Poxviridae: family of double-stranded DNA viruses  Associated clinical syndromes ▪ Febrile rash illnesses: smallpox (eradicated), monkeypox ▪ Skin lesions: vesicles, pustules, papules, skin thickening  Morphology ▪ Brick-shaped/ovoid ▪ Enveloped (outer lipid membrane) ▪ Size: 220–450nm  MOLLUSCUM CONTAGIOSUM osms.it/molluscum-contagiosum PATHOLOGY & CAUSES ▪ Molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV): poxvirus; causes papular skin disease ▪ Four subtypes; genotype 1 causes most U.S. cases ▪ Common in children, adolescents ▪ Skin penetration → stratum spinosum replication within keratinocytes → epidermal hypertrophy → papules ▪ Incubation period: 2–6 weeks  COMPLICATIONS  ▪ Widespread/refractory lesions in immunosuppressed individuals  CAUSES  ▪ Physical contact, autoinoculation, fomites  RISK FACTORS  ▪ Contact sports; sexual intercourse with infected individuals; immunosuppression; atopic dermatitis  Figure 91.1 The wart-like lesions caused by molluscum contagiosum infection.
