The article presents data on clinical forms of warts associated with different types of human papillomavirus. The authors analyze the following wart treatment methods: excision, chemical and immune. Based on literature sources, the authors assess the efficacy, advantages and disadvantages of well-known treatment methods. The authors describe their own experience of treating primary and recurrent vulgar and plantar warts with an up-to-date chemical destruction drug - Mardil Zinc Max, a solution containing a complex compound of 1.5% zinc 2-chloropropionate in 2-chloropropionic acid. The efficacy of treatment of vulgar warts was 100%, and that of plantar ones - 62.5%. Clinical recovery was observed both in case of primary and recurrent processes. The treatment had no adverse effects or complications and was characterized by a low injury rate, good tolerance and full tissue recovery without any cosmetic defects.
