Abstract
The sudden eruption of large numbers of tiny new warts in a patient with multiple flat warts often signals the onset of involution and subsequent regression of all flat warts. Such cases (5) were observed and 2 cases were described in which the sudden efflorescence of many new warts was used as a sign to predict accurately the onset of involution and subsequent regression of all flat warts. Correlation of the histopathological and clinical findings provided an explanation for this phenomenon.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
