### **2.1 Clinical diagnosis**

The clinical picture of cutaneous warts differs by specific location on the body [2]. Most extragenital warts are benign, and usually clinical diagnosis is adequate, but sometimes additional methods are required especially in atypical, subclinical or dysplastic lesions. Genital lesions are more prone to transform to

malignancy, so determining the extent of disease is essential. Examining the wart and scraping off the top layer of the wart to check for signs of dark, pinpoint dots clotted blood vessels—are common with warts.
