The clinical and histological features of 49 lesions induced by human papillomavirus type 1 (HPV-1) were studied. The majority of cases showed the typical clinical features and location of such lesions. They were usually located on the ventral or lateral surfaces of the hands or feet, and were dome-shaped lesions with a central depression.However, HPV-1-induced lesions located on other hody areas displayed different clinical features, such as those of common warts, a digitate wart, and a cutaneous horn. One lesion on a healing burn scar had a herpes-like appearance. As these 49 lesions were induced by the same type of HPV(HPV-1). differences in their clinical features are likely to have been due to host-related factors.
