title: [Treatment of condylomata acuminata using liquid nitrogen].
abstract: We treated 105 patients with anogenital warts with cotton swabs soaked in liquid nitrogen. 90.1% of the patients were cured, but recurrences were observed in 19.5%. With this method we obtained better clinical results than those obtained with the cryoprobes system. Good results were obtained when the lesions were accessible for treatment, but neither the time of evolution nor the size influenced the cure.
