Giant condylomata are not usually seen nowadays in developed nations, but such cases are still seen in the under-resourced countries. Condylomata acuminata are commonly transmitted through sexual intercourse. Generally diagnosed based on their appearance.

A condylomata acuminata infection is caused by human papillomaviridae (HPV). This sexually transmitted condition most often affects the perineal region. Importantly, infections with types 16 and 18 are associated with an increased risk for anal and cervix cancer. In most cases topical therapy is sufficient for successfully treating condylomata acuminata. Here, we report the case of a 51-year ol...

ISSN 0001-5555 Condylomata acuminata (CA) are sexually transmitted benign warty lesions that usually affect the anogenital epithelium. Low-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, such as HPV type 6 or 11, is associated with the disease (1). These lesions exhibit a small papular, filiform or ...

Among 237 cases of condyloma diagnosed in Uganda between 1964 and 1975 seven types of lesions were defined. Three of these were found within a wide age range in both young and elderly people, namely, the common (49.4%) and the flat (2.0%) condyloma acuminatum, and condyloma acuminatum of irregular outline (13.5%). Four variants, on the other hand, fell into different age groups. Condyloma acumi...

Low-risk human papillomavirus types 6 and 11 can manifest as giant condylomata acuminata (GCA) of Buschke-Lowenstein. Up to 50% of GCA can slowly progress over years to fungating, invasive tumors. The malignant potential is attributed to unique immune evading abilities of the human papillomavirus. A 42-year-old male presented with pain and foul-smelling discharge from his genital warts. The his...

In 202 women with koilocytotic atypia in cervical smears, 136 had predominantly small condylomata of the uterine cervix, and 66 had cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) of varying degree either with koilocytosis of the neoplasia or associated with condylomata. Koilocytosis correlated well with the histological diagnosis of condylomata, but occasionally it obscured the cytological evidence o...
