Anogenital Warts

چکیده
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 are caused by infection with HPV types 6 and 11. These types are not associated with a significant risk of neoplastic transformation. Types 16 and 18 are associated with a high risk of neoplastic transformation. There may be coinfection with these high-risk types of HPV.
