Not only are genital warts the commonest sexually transmitted infections, but treatment and control of these infections have proved difficult and HPV has been implicated in the causation of a number of anogenital tract tumours including cervical, vulval, penile and anal cancer. Major advances in molecular biology and anti-viral chemotherapy in the last decade have revolutionizedunderstanding of the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of virus-associated diseases and the potential for producing effective immunisation. Infections with human papillomavirus are no exception. Genital Warts is an essential resource for all those concerned with this complex clinical problem and its sequelae.
