Brief Summary
|
Various studies have failed to reach at an ideal
treatment modality which can be used for treatment of palmo-plantar warts which
are resistant to standard treatment.
Both bleomycin and immunotherapy, individually, have
shown promising results in the management of these warts. But the studies have
mostly been open label uncontrolled studies not targeting specifically the
resistant palmoplantar warts.
Indian data regarding the efficacy of both bleomycin
and immunotherapy is limited. Moreover, no head to head study to compare their
efficacy has been done.
Is bleomycin effective in clearing untreated warts as
there have been reports of distant warts getting cleared after intralesional
bleomycin therapy, but no study evaluating this parameter has been performed.
