Homeopathic resolution of HPV-related genital warts following robotic hysterectomy: A case report

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a major etiological factor in cervical dysplasia and related gynecological disorders. Even after definitive surgical management such as total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO), HPV persistence remains a clinical concern, as residual or recurrent dysplasia may occur. We report on the case of a patient with high-risk HPV infection who initially presented with abnormal uterine bleeding and was diagnosed with cervical dysplasia. She underwent a robotic hysterectomy with BSO. Despite surgery, the patient experienced recurrent HPV positivity and reappearance of genital warts, underscoring the importance of continued surveillance in HPV-positive individuals. The persistent disease phase was accompanied by significant psychological distress, including anxiety and fear of incurability. The patient was subsequently treated with homeopathic medicine, which resulted in the successful resolution of symptoms and improvement in mental well-being. This highlights the potential role of complementary approaches in managing HPV-related disease and associated psychological burden. This case emphasizes that HPV infection may persist even after hysterectomy, necessitating ongoing monitoring for recurrence. It also illustrates the integration of homeopathy as a supportive therapeutic modality in addressing both physical and psychological aspects of HPV-related disease.
