Prevention/Solution
No set treatment for epidermodysplasia verruciformis exists, according to eMedicine. Patients are advised to stay out of the sun, and most growths can be surgically removed. Koswara showed signs of improvement after extensive treatments. Repeated surgeries and large doses of synthetic vitamin A allowed him to regain partial use of his hands.

The virus was therefore able to "hijack the cellular machinery of his skin cells", ordering them to produce massive amounts of the substance that caused the tree-like growths known as "cutaneous horns" on his hands and feet.The condition usually has an onset of between the ages of 1–20, but can occasionally present in middle-age.The cause of the condition is an inactivating HP mutation in either the EVER1 or EVER2 genesTreatment

A totally effective treatment method against EV has not yet been found. Several treatments have been suggested, and acitretin 0.5–1 mg/day for 6 months’ duration is the most effective treatment owing to antiproliferative and differentiation-inducing effects.

How many people have the tree man disease?

There are three humans on planet Earth who have the tree man disease, and all of them have Indonesian ancestry. It is a rare genetic disease that impedes the immune system, and causes the extensive growth of warts.

The most well known case is Dede, who, as the story goes, tripped and scraped his leg at age 15, then slowly began to develop the symptoms of this disease, excessive skin warts.


Besides Dede, there is another man from Indonesia with the disease, and a man in Holland who was diagnosed, but his family is from Indonesia. This disease has a genetic link to persons from a specific area in Indonesia.Human
