Abstract

Cutaneous warts are spread directly by contact from infected persons or indirectly from contaminated surfaces or objects, the transmission usually facilitated by minor breaks in the epidermal barrier. Reinfection and autoinoculation are common methods of spread especially in children .Viral warts can be recalcitrant to treatment or recur despite the use of various destructive and immunotherapeutic modalities. No single treatment is completely successful in every patient as the current treatment modalities focus primarily on either destructing and removing visible lesions or inducing a cytotoxic effect against HPV-infected cells instead of killing the virus
