ROLE OF VITAMINE D IN TREATMENT OF PLANE WARTS
Dr. Rasha Abid Shlij Al-Essawy*, Dr. Asia Husam Hasan and Dr. Nael Murad Dawood
ABSTRACT
Warts are common epidermal growths caused by various strains of human papillomavirus (HPV) afflicting all age groups. They have an unsightly appearance and are mostly asymptomatic but sometimes may be painful, as in the case of palmoplantar warts. The virus initially targets the basal cells and undergoes a latent phase of slow replication. As the epidermis grows superficially, the virus induces hyperplasia and hyperkeratosis.[1] Keywords: .
