• Abstract

  Anogenital warts (AGWs) are prevalent benign epithelial lesions: it is estimated that 10% of individuals will show anogenital warts throughout their lives and that the incidence is between 160 and 289 cases per 100,000 individuals per year, worldwide. Thus constituting major public health problem. They are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV), especially HPV-6 and 11 types. Despite t…
