The human skin and mucous membranes of the complex squamous epithelium on the only – host of HPV, has not been successfully cultured in vitro. Viral particles are 50-55 nm in diameter, which is very small and cannot be seen with a light microscope, but only with the aid of an electron microscope. The current genotyping of subtypes has reached more than 200, of which more than 30 subtypes are associated with the occurrence of condyloma acuminata.

For example, HPV6 subtypes 11, 30, 39, 42, 43 and 44. In addition to genital warts, high-risk types can cause external genital cancer, cervical cancer and high cervical intraepithelial neoplasia CIN Ⅱ, CIN Ⅲ, such as: HPV16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 61, etc., especially HPV16, HPV 18.
