This cross-sectional study was conducted at Sakarya University Training and Research Hospital using a questionnaire completed by individuals diagnosed with anogenital warts. A total of 105 respondents were included in the study, comprising 80 males (76.2%) and 25 females (23.8%). The mean age of participants was 34.7\u2009\u00b1\u200911.2 years. HPV awareness was 70.5%, while cervical cancer awareness was 38.1%. Women demonstrated significantly higher levels of HPV and cervical cancer awareness, as well as knowledge of Pap smear testing, compared to men. Women were also significantly more likely than men to express willingness to vaccinate their children against HPV (84.0% vs. 58.8%,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20090.039). Higher education levels were associated with increased awareness of HPV, HPV vaccination, and willingness to vaccinate children. Physicians were the primary source of HPV-related information across the cohort. HPV vaccine awareness was 73.3%, but the overall vaccination rate was only 10.5%, with women showing significantly higher vaccination rates than men (24% vs. 6.2%,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20090.021). The most commonly reported barriers to vaccination were cost (60%) and lack of information (45.7%). None of the participants had vaccinated their children. This study highlights that awareness of HPV and its vaccination is associated with gender and education level but does not translate into higher vaccination rates. Efforts should focus on targeting men and individuals with lower educational attainment by strengthening physicians\u2019 roles in public education. Incorporating HPV vaccination into national programs and implementing culturally tailored campaigns may effectively improve vaccination rates.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10900-025-01444-y","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,2]],"date-time":"2025-02-02T15:22:26Z","timestamp":1738509746000},"page":"560-567","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Evaluation of HPV and Related Cancer Awareness and Vaccination Attitudes Among Patients with Anogenital Warts: a Survey-Based Study"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"50","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1683-2421","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Berna","family":"Solak","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mustafa","family":"Arslan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,2]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"1444_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1128\/CMR.16.1.1-17.2003","volume":"16","author":"EM Burd","year":"2003","unstructured":"Burd, E.
