Abstract

The medico-legal significance of anogenital warts as a marker of sexual abuse in children is unclear. This review article presents three case reports and discusses the possible modes of transmission of papilloma virus in children. Although genital warts can indicate sexual abuse, non-sexual transmission may also occur.
