Overview

Physical examination

Cutaneous lesions

Warts

They are well demarcated, exophytic, hyperkeratotic papules or plaques with a rough surface that are usually located on the fingers or lateral surface of the hands that could be single or in groups.

Epidermodysplasia verruciformis

Characterized by the growth of scaly macules and papules, that may become hypertrophic and coalescent particularly on the hands and upper trunk in children.[2]

Anogenital lesions

Intraepithelial neoplasia

Digital palpation of the vagina to assess for thickening or irregularity of the vaginal wall and a thorough colposcopic assessment of the entire vagina must be perform, however physical examination of patients with early stage is usually unremarkable, but after the insertion of a speculum and the application of acetic acid, lesions will appear as raised or flat white, granular epithelium with sharply demarcated borders and may contain areas of vascular punctation.[3]

Condylomata acuminata

It ranges from smooth flattened papule to a verrucous, papilliform appearance. Large lesions may be seen during physical examination. Female and male genital area and anus may be affected.
