Introduction: With the naked eye, it can frequently be challenging to tell a plantar wart from a corn or callus. A non-invasive diagnostic method called dermoscopy allows for the inspection of morphological features that are not apparent to the unaided eye. This study aimed to examine the dermoscopic findings in pared and unpared cases of palmoplantar warts, corns, and calluses.Methods: Seventy patients who had palmoplantar warts, corns, and calluses were included in this study. A predesigned structured format was used to document the dermoscopic findings.Result: The majority of patients (51.4%) had warts followed by callus (28.6%) and corn (20%). On dermoscopic examination, all unpared and pared cases of warts had homogenous black/red dots. Translucent central core was present in 92.85% unpared and 100% pared lesions of corns. Homogenous opacity was present in 75% unpared and 100% pared cases of callus. There was no association between unpared and pared lesions (p>0.05). Conclusion:The accuracy of identifying various clinical types of cutaneous warts, calluses, and corns can be improved by dermoscopy without paring.

“…Various eponymous dermoscopic signs of scabies include “Delta sign”/“hang glider sign”/“triangle sign” (brownish triangular structures in the shape of hang glider) corresponding to the head and anterior legs of the mite and “Jetliner with contrail sign” (where the mite body appears translucent and air-filled burrow resembles a jetliner with contrail). [ 2 ] “Noodle pattern” or “millipede-like structure” (showing numerous burrows) as seen in our case is a characteristic dermoscopy sign of crusted scabies. [ 3 ]…”

“…Meanwhile, those of 1 distant wart, also marked on the diagram, were taken at baseline and 1, 2, 3, and 6 months after the last injection. The dermoscopic images were later inspected by a blinded dermatologist for features including frogspawn appearance (i.e., multiple densely packed papillae, each containing a central red dot or loop and surrounded by a whitish halo), pattern and distribution of vascularity, brown/black dots or capillary thrombosis, hemorrhagic points, surface appearance, background color, structureless area, whitish halo, and interrupted dermatoglyphics [5,11,12].…”

Intralesional Measles, Mumps, Rubella Vaccine versus Tuberculin Purified Protein Derivative Injections in the Treatment of Palmoplantar and Periungual Warts: A Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial

et al. 2022

Background: Palmoplantar and periungual warts tend to be recalcitrant. Intralesional immunotherapy can provide high efficacy with additional benefit to distant warts. However, evidence on comparative effects between intralesional immunotherapy with measles, mumps, rubella vaccine (MMR) and tuberculin purified protein derivative (PPD) and roles of dermoscopy in predicting treatment outcomes in palmoplantar/periungual warts is limited. Objectives: The study aimed to compare efficacy and safety of intralesional MMR and PPD injections in treatment of palmoplantar/periungual warts and explore associations between dermoscopic findings and treatment outcomes. Methods: We conducted a double-blind randomized controlled trial involving 40 patients with palmoplantar/periungual warts who were equally assigned to receive MMR or PPD. Intralesional injection was done every 2 weeks until clearance or maximum of 5 treatments. Results: Complete resolution was higher in MMR than PPD group (90.0% vs. 80.0% in index lesion and 81.3% vs. 54.6% in distant lesions, respectively), although the differences were statistically nonsignificant. Dermoscopic findings were not significantly associated with complete resolution. Local swelling, i.e., the most common adverse event, occurred more frequently in PPD (40.0%) than MMR group (10.0%). Conclusion: This study suggests that intralesional immunotherapy with either MMR or PPD is efficacious in palmoplantar/periungual warts, with MMR showing a trend toward higher clearance and lower adverse events.
