    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Laser Medicine

    Background:

    • Plantar warts are common but can be challenging to treat.
    • Some cases show resistance to standard therapies, suggesting underlying complexities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate a potential new type of wart presenting with atypical characteristics.
    • To understand the anatomical location and implications for treatment resistance.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized carbon dioxide laser technology for precise tissue examination.
    • Histological analysis to delineate wart extension between dermal and epidermal layers.

    Main Results:

    • Confirmed the existence of a distinct wart type located sub-epidermally on the heel.
    • Observed significant extension of the wart between the dermis and epidermis, beyond the visible surface lesion.

    Conclusions:

    • A novel sub-epidermal heel wart is identified.
    • The deep and extensive nature of this wart type likely contributes to its resistance to conventional treatments.
