Oral isotretinoin as first-line systemic therapy in a case of extensive genital warts.

Abstract

Genital warts caused by human papillomavirus are one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases seen in the outpatient department. Treatment modalities of genital warts vary depending on the size, site, extent of the lesions, and patient compliance. Here, we report a case of extensive genital warts managed with oral retinoids which resulted in complete clearance.
