Intralesional acyclovir versus intralesional Hepatitis-B vaccine
Abstract:
Treating plantar warts is still a challenging problem with a long list of diverse treatment options that none of them seems to be definitive. To evaluate the effectiveness of intralesional acyclovir versus intralesional Hepatitis-B vaccine (HBV) in treatment of multiple resistant plantar warts. Forty-eight patients with resistant plantar warts completed the study with no dropouts. They were randomized into 3 groups; group(A) receiving intralesional HBV, group (B) receiving intralesional acyclovir and group (C) receiving intralesional saline as a control group over 5 biweekly sessions or until wart clearance. Clinical outcome was assessed through sequential digital lesion photographing upon each visit. Treatment related adverse reactions were recorded. 43.8%, 37.5% & 18.7% of Groups A, B &C respectively showed a complete response. pain was obvious in 100% and 56.3% of cases receiving intralesional acyclovir and HBV respectively. Up to the 6 month follow up period, none of the complete responders in all groups returned with a recurrence. Both acyclovir and HBV showed comparable efficacy and seem to be promising options for treating plantar warts being safe, affordable, and theoretically safe in immunocompromised cases.
