| Popis: | Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most prevalent cause of warts on the skin and mucous membranes of the human body. With the aid of a variety of destructive and immunotherapeutic methods, wart therapy remains a major difficulty. Antigen immunotherapy by intralesional technique uses the immune system's ability to recognize viral, bacterial, and fungal antigens that elicit a delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction, not only to the antigen but also to the wart virus, which in turn boosts the immune system's ability to recognize and remove HPV. All lesions on the body, not just the injected one, could be destroyed by this boosted immune response. Different antigens, including Candida and pure protein derivative (PPD), have been shown to be useful in the treatment of various wart forms. Objective: Intralesional immunotherapy for numerous common warts is to be evaluated for its effectiveness. Conclusion: There has been substantial research into the use of intralesional vaccinations and organic antigens to treat warts, with good results of effectiveness. |
