Formulas 6 and 11 are due to 91% of warts. Acute warts are perceived by the woman itself but usually do not present a risk of cancer progression.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=&#8221;10&#8243;][vc_column][vc_column_text]The other types of HPV (16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 53, 56, 58, 59, 66, 68, 70, 73, 82, 85) do not cause obvious damage, however they tend to lead to pre-cancerous lesions, which can lead to cervical cancer. High-risk HPV serotypes are almost exclusively due to cervical cancer.<\/p>\n<p>Diagnosis of HPV infection can be done via colposcopy, PAP testing and molecular DNA or RNA DNA detection techniques to detect active virus proliferation. Their treatment is supported by pharmaceutical methods, which are either applied by the patient himself or by the gynecologist locally to the lesions. Recurrence rates vary by case.<\/p>\n<p>The most modern methods include mechanical removal of warts by laser or biopsy forceps loop. Mechanical removal of warts shows lower rates of recurrence. Regarding the potential precancerous lesions caused by HPV infection, a loop or laser treatment can be used, depending on the stage of the lesion.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-9906 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/kostaras.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/grey_stroke_circles-break-300x59.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"59\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kostaras.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/grey_stroke_circles-break-300x59.png 300w, https:\/\/kostaras.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/grey_stroke_circles-break-672x133.png 672w, https:\/\/kostaras.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/grey_stroke_circles-break.png 763w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Articles&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|font_size:28|text_align:center|color:%23bca22b&#8221; google_fonts=&#8221;font_family:Ubuntu%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C500%2C500italic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row padding_top=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]HPV is a Human Papilloma Virus and infects the skin and mucous membranes of humans and certain animals.
