IMPORTANCE Although cutaneous warts are common lesions, full remission is not always achieved with conventional therapies. Laser modalities including carbon dioxide (CO2), erbium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Er:YAG), pulsed dye (PDL), and Nd:YAG have been investigated as alternative treatments for warts. OBJECTIVE To review the use and efficacy of lasers for treating nongenital cutaneous warts. ...

Background: The genotypic distribution of human papillomavirus (HPV) needs to be determined with detail as it is an important issue when comes public health and preparing vaccines since the HPV type may different in various areas. Objectives: This study aimed at reporting frequency types among women Sari north Iran. Methods: From 2018 October 2019 April, 50 sterile swabs vaginal cervical discha...

Hippo signalling controls organ growth and cell fate by regulating the activity of the kinase Warts. Multiple Hippo pathway components localize to apical junctions in epithelial cells, but the spatial and functional relationships among components have not been clarified, nor is it known where Warts activation occurs. We report here that Hippo pathway components in Drosophila wing imaginal discs...

We report a 27-year-old hemophilic male who was HIV positive and under Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) along with wart lesions. When IMOD therapy started concurrently with HAART, the skin lesions disappeared.

Subungual exostosis arises underneath the nail plate, originating from the underlying bone. The characteristic appearance of this disorder may occasionally mimic a wide variety of tumors, including subungual verrucae, endochondroma, fibroma, or amelanotic melanoma. With such a wide variety of similar-appearing tumors, optimal treatment of this disorder clearly lies in proper recognition and tre...

Fifty four men with anogenital warts were studied; 22 had concurrent infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The median duration of the warts before and after the start of treatment of seven HIV infected and 10 non-infected heterosexual men was similar. In homosexual men, however, the duration of the lesions in 15 HIV infected patients was greater before and after treatment than ...

Sir, Verruca vulgaris is a benign epithelial hyperplasia caused by human papilloma viruses that causes therapeutic problems, especially in immunocompromised patients. We report here 2 patients on continuous immunosuppressive medication with relapsing warts resistant to topical immunotherapy with diphenylcyclopropenone (DCP). As an alternative, occlusive treatment with 5% imiquimod cream was suc...

BACKGROUND Verrucae vulgaris can be removed in a variety of ways but a specific therapy of choice has not yet been developed. Doctors are faced with a challenge, especially in the treatment of recalcitrant warts. It has been suggested that the success of pulsed dye laser treatment lies in the fact that warts contain an increased number of dilated blood vessels. METHODS Seventy-three patients ...

Often, the treatment of verrucae is frustrating for both the physician and patient. Treatment may be painful, scarring, ineffective, and costly. The object of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes and safety of Candida albicans intralesional injection immunotherapy (CI) versus conventional wart treatment. The results of a prospective, nonrandomized, open-label, comparison study are pr...
