INTRODUCTION
Warts are benign epithelial proliferations caused by a double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid virus called human papillomavirus. They may cause significant concern and frustration on the part of the patient affecting social activities as lesions can be uncomfortable, and treatment is often painful and frustratingly ineffective. The study aimed to find out the prevalence of warts among patients visiting the outpatient Department of Dermatology in a tertiary care centre.
METHODS
This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary care centre from 20 January 2021 to 21 February 2022. The ethical approval was taken from the Institutional Review Committee (Reference number: IRC-NMCTH 588/2021). A convenience sampling technique was used. A detailed history including distribution, size, morphology, progression and duration of the lesions was taken. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated.
RESULTS
Out of 4802 outpatients, 140 (2.92%) (2.44-3.40, 95% Confidence Interval) had warts. Genital wart was found in 24 (17.14%) and non-genital warts in 116 (82.85%) patients.
CONCLUSIONS
The prevalence of warts among outpatients was similar when compared to other studies from similar settings.
简介
疣是由一种称为人乳头瘤病毒的双链脱氧核糖核酸病毒引起的良性上皮增生。它们可能会引起患者的严重关注和沮丧，因为病变可能会引起不适，而治疗通常是痛苦且令人沮丧的无效。本研究旨在了解在一家三级保健中心皮肤科门诊就诊的患者中疣的患病率。
方法
这是一项在 2021 年 1 月 20 日至 2022 年 2 月 21 日在一家三级保健中心进行的描述性横断面研究。该研究已获得机构审查委员会的批准（参考编号：IRC-NMCTH 588/2021）。采用便利抽样技术。详细的病史包括病变的分布、大小、形态、进展和持续时间。计算了点估计值和 95%置信区间。
结果
在 4802 名门诊患者中，有 140 名（2.92%）（2.44-3.40，95%置信区间）患有疣。发现 24 名（17.14%）患者患有生殖器疣，116 名（82.85%）患者患有非生殖器疣。
结论
与类似环境的其他研究相比，门诊患者中疣的患病率相似。
