Abstract

Abstract: Verruca vulgaris (common warts) is a benign proliferation of squamous epithelium caused by Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, especially type 2 and 1. Verruca vulgaris can occur at any age, but more often among children and young adults. Warts are spread by direct or indirect contact. The lesions appear most commonly in areas affected by trauma such as the hands, fingers, elbows, and knees, albeit, they can occur in other places. This study aimed to determine the profile of verruca vulgaris in Dermatovenereology Clinic of Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado period January – December 2013. This was a retrospective study based on gender, age, occupation, location of the lesion, and therapy. The results showed that of 4099 new cases there were 43 cases of verruca vulgaris (1.05%), most were females (51.16%), and aged 5-14 years (30.22%). They were commonly students (32.56%), the location of lesion at the upper extremity (32.56%), and the treatment of the lesion with electrical surgery (93.02%).
