Genital warts do not cause cancer.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) causes genital warts. It also causes Cevical cancer in women and that's been getting a lot of press lately. BUT men can be affected by HPV also. It is the cause of Penile and Anal Cancer in men.

Here is a facts sheet about HPV and Men.
