A man developed with multiple warts on his hands and the inner canthus of his left eye. We applied local hyperthermia on a single target lesion on his hand at a surface temperature of 44°C for 30 minutes on Days 1, 2, 3, 17, and 18. All the lesions treated with or without heat cleared 8 weeks after the last treatment. Treatment of a target lesion resolved all other untreated lesions, a fact suggestive that local hyperthermia could induce activation of specific immunity against human papillomavirus on the lesional skin, which lead to resolution of all the warts. |
