简要总结
Various studies have failed to reach at an idealtreatment modality which can be used for treatment of palmo-plantar warts whichare resistant to standard treatment.
Both bleomycin and immunotherapy, individually, haveshown promising results in the management of these warts. But the studies havemostly been open label uncontrolled studies not targeting specifically theresistant palmoplantar warts.
Indian data regarding the efficacy of both bleomycinand immunotherapy is limited. Moreover, no head to head study to compare theirefficacy has been done.
Is bleomycin effective in clearing untreated warts asthere have been reports of distant warts getting cleared after intralesionalbleomycin therapy, but no study evaluating this parameter has been performed.
