title: [Condylomata acuminata and associated infections--possibilities for therapy with interferon].
abstract: Recombinant alpha-Interferon can be used in primary therapy of condylomata acuminata. In our patients we found a response rate of 53%. Besides use in primary therapy the significant low rate of recurrences is important, thus offering the possibility of adjuvant interferon therapy after primary surgical treatment, where laser-vaporisation is best applied. Possible applications for primary and secondary treatment are shown. The rate of additional infections is of great importance; besides common agents for vaginal infections we found an elevated rate of HPV 16/18 with 47%.
