Abstract

Cutaneous warts are benign intraepidermal skin tumors with a variety of manifestations including common warts (verrucae vulgaris), palmar and plantar warts (palmar and plantar warts), mosaic warts, flat warts (flat warts) generally diagnosed by their clinical appearance although the definitive diagnosis depends on the histopathological examination.

Ultrasound can define its extent, exact locations and blood flow patterns being extremely useful in difficult cases, especially when symptoms such as pain persist over time. It can also give pre-surgical information relevance and can finally provide important insights into associated conditions of the foot.
