%X Anogenital warts is a major health problem caused by human papillomavirus£¿(HPV). To date, more than 200 subtypes of HPV exist.£¿ Depending on the type of HPV and the immune status of the patient, various clinical forms may appear. The most detected types are HPV 6 and 11 which are responsible for approximately 90% of anogenital warts. High oncogenic strains HPV types 16 and 18 are responsible not only for servical cancer but also other cancers such as vagina, vulva, penis, anus, head and neck.£¿ £¿Besides, anogenital warts impact the individual¡¯s quality of life leading significant psychosocial problems.£¿ Treatment options for anogenital warts include cytodestructive, £¿immune-mediated and surgical therapies.£¿ Treatment choice depends on the location, number, and size of the warts; patient situation (eg, pregnancy, ability to comply with therapy, immunsuppression); availability of clinical expertise; and patient preferences, cost, and convenience.£¿ £¿This article updates the epidemiological, etiological, clinical features and therapeutic choices in anogenital warts. £¿zet
