picture info	Wart Warts are typically small, rough, hard growths that are similar in color to the rest of the skin. They typically do not result in other symptoms, except when on the bottom of the feet, where they may be painful. While they usually occur on the hands and feet, they can also affect other locations. One or many warts may appear. They are not cancerous. Warts are caused by infection with a type of human papillomavirus (HPV). Factors that increase the risk include use of public showers and pools, working with meat, eczema and a weak immune system. The virus is believed to enter the body through skin that has been damaged slightly. A number of types exist, including "common warts", plantar warts, " filiform warts", and genital warts. Genital warts are often sexually transmitted. Without treatment, most types of warts resolve in months to years. A number of treatments may speed resolution, including salicylic acid applied to the skin and cryotherapy. In those who are otherwise h ...

	Verrucous Carcinoma Verrucous carcinoma (VC) is an uncommon variant of squamous cell carcinoma. This form of cancer is often seen in those who chew tobacco or use snuff orally, so much so that it is sometimes referred to as "Snuff dipper's cancer". Signs and symptoms * Ageusually over 60 years old * Sexmales are more prone * Sitegingiva, buccal mucosa, alveolar mucosa, hard palate, floor of the mouth, larynx, oesophagus, penis, vagina, scrotum. * Clinical presentation: It is a slow growing, diffuse, exophytic lesion usually covered by leukoplakic patches. Invasive lesions quickly invade bones. It can rapidly become fixed with underlying periosteum and cause gradual destruction of jaw bone. Enlarged regional lymph nodes. Lesion shows painful multiple rugae-like folds and deep clefts between them. Regional lymph nodes tender and enlarged. Pain and difficulty in mastication. Cause This form of cancer is often seen in those who chew tobacco or use snuff orally, so much so that it ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR:** [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Verrucous Lupus Erythematosus Verrucous lupus erythematosus presents with non-pruritic papulonodular lesions on the arms and hands, resembling keratoacanthoma or hypertropic lichen planus.James, William; Berger, Timothy; Elston, Dirk (2005).

picture info	Proliferative Verrucous Leukoplakia Oral leukoplakia is a ''potentially malignant disorder'' affecting the oral mucosa. It is defined as "essentially an oral mucosal white lesion that cannot be considered as any other definable lesion." Oral leukoplakia is a white patch or plaque that develops in the oral cavity and is strongly associated with smoking. Leukoplakia is a firmly attached white patch on a mucous membrane which is associated with increased risk of cancer. The edges of the lesion are typically abrupt and the lesion changes with time. Advanced forms may develop red patches. There are generally no other symptoms. It usually occurs within the mouth, although sometimes mucosa in other parts of the gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, or genitals may be affected. The cause of leukoplakia is unknown. Risk factors for formation inside the mouth include smoking, chewing tobacco, excessive alcohol, and use of betel nuts. One specific type is common in HIV/AIDS. It is a precancerous lesion, a tissue alteration ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

	Verrucous Vascular Malformation Angiokeratoma is a benign cutaneous lesion of capillaries, resulting in small marks of red to blue color and characterized by hyperkeratosis. ''Angiokeratoma corporis diffusum'' refers to Fabry's disease, but this is usually considered a distinct condition. Signs and symptoms Presentation includes telangiectasia, acanthosis, and hyperkeratosis. Presentation can be solitary or systemic. Multiple angiokeratomas, especially on the trunk in young people, are typical for Fabry disease, genetic disorder connected with systemic complications. Complications In some instances nodular angiokeratomas can produce necrotic tissue and valleys that can harbor fungal, bacterial and viral infections. Infections can include staphylococcus. If the lesion becomes painful, begins draining fluids or pus, or begins to smell, consult a physician. In these instance a doctor may recommend excision and grafting.
