Background: Warts are common skin disorders that treated by a variety of methods. Therefore, researchers searching for effective and less-complicated methods, especially treatment-resistant warts. In this regard, the present study compared two CO2 laser trichloroacetic acid, to treat warts in patients who visited Khanevadeh Hospital from October 2013 2014. Objectives: The aimed compare treatmen...

Five clinical types of genital warts were identified, studied histopathologically and stained for human papilloma virus (HPV) antigen. HPV antigen was found in all degrees of koilocytosis and it was present more often in the hyperplastic warts than in other types of genital warts. However, as reported earlier, the presence of HPV antigen did not decrease proportionately as the degree of atypia ...

Warts are benign proliferations of the skin and mucosa caused by an infection resulting from the human papilloma virus. Plantar warts (verruca plantaris) are known to be particularly difficult to treat and eradicate. We herein report a case of recalcitrant plantar warts that was successfully treated with the Chinese Herb E. ebracteolata Hayata.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) XS2 was isolated from warts on an immunosuppressed patient. After HPV vaccination, the warts resolved. HPVXS2 was also found in warts and normal skin of HIV-positive patients and rarely in HIV-negative controls. Further studies should elucidate the mechanisms that lead to wart clearance.

BACKGROUND Genital warts, which are caused by infection with human papillomavirus (HPV), are one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases in Europe. Although genital warts are commonly perceived as a non-serious condition, treatment is often long, of varying effectiveness and the recurrence rate is high. Very few studies have been performed on the personal consequences of genital warts....

OBJECTIVE To compare patient tolerance and treatment efficacy of subcutaneous interferon (IFN) alpha 2a plus cryotherapy versus cryotherapy alone in treatment of primary anogenital (AG) warts. DESIGN Randomised placebo controlled observer blind study. Statistical analysis was by chi square and Mann Whitney U tests. PATIENTS 60 patients with newly diagnosed AG warts. INTERVENTION 29 and 31...

Eleven male patients with genital warts were given injections of fibroblast interferon (300 u) and placebo into the bases of two similar warts. The changes in size of the treated warts compared with that of the controls suggested that interferon did inhibit the growth of the warts. The dose given was probably insufficient for a dramatic effect. In one patient, however, a wart on the penile shaf...

Anogenital warts are caused by infection with HPV. There are >100 of these double-stranded-DNA papovaviruses characterised, with most now fully DNA-sequenced. HPV is transmitted sexually in most cases but can also be transmitted prenatally, by auto-inoculation or hetero-inoculation from non-genital warts. Anogenital warts have a 60% transmission rate between partners. Over 95% of genital warts ...

HPV: Human papillomavirus INTRODUCTION Common cutaneous warts caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) strains 1, 2, and 4, can be challenging to treat. Immunosuppressed patients are especially vulnerable to this infection, and the warts may cause physical and psychologic distress. There are currently 3 commercially available vaccines in the United States that target HPV strains commonly associated...

BACKGROUND Human papillomaviruses are the most common sexually transmitted infections, and genital warts, caused by HPV-6 and 11, entail considerable morbidity and cost. The natural history of genital warts in relation to HIV-1 infection has not been described in African women. We examined risk factors for genital warts in a cohort of high-risk women in Burkina Faso, in order to further describ...
