Abstract
Condylomata acuminata (CA) are sexually transmitted infectious papillomatous lesions caused by a papovavirus, which affects the mucocutaneous areas of the perineum and external genitalia. Treatment of CA is variable and may include topical application of podophyllin, 5% 5-fluorouracil cream, electrical fulguration, surgical excision and immunotherapy. Recently, CO 2 laser photocoagulation has been used in the treatment of CA. We report here our preliminary experience in treating urethral CA with a new topical agent.
