- Abstract:
- Common warts (verrucae vulgaris) are associated with human papillomavirus infection and are routinely treated by ablative procedures such as cryotherapy, electrodessiccation and salicylic acid. We report 10 cases of recurrent warts treated with a potential new topical therapy, imiquimod 5% cream. Nine of the 10 patients were successfully treated with imiquimod 5% cream applied, under occlusion, once daily for 4 weeks. No recurrences were reported during 3 months of follow up.
