The relationship between warts and hyper-immunoglobulin E (IgE) syndrome lies in the fact that patients with this syndrome may have recurrent or persistent skin warts because of their immune dysfunction. Therefore, it is important to consider this possibility when evaluating a patient with skin warts, especially if they are associated with other symptoms such as recurrent infections or pulmonary issues. Warts can thus be an important clinical sign indicating the presence of this syndrome. We report the case of a young girl presenting with numerous warts accompanied by pulmonary involvement and weight delay, in whom the diagnosis of hyper IgE syndrome was established.
