title: [Condylomata acuminata].
abstract: A review of the recent literature concerning the C.A. has been made. Two major facts appear to be confirmed: the rising incidence of the disease for adults as in other S.T.D. and the oncogenicity of some of the HPV's (Human Papillomavirus) isolated from the C.A.: HPV 16, 18, 31, 33 and 35. A peculiar attention has been paid to the para-clinical evaluation of the patient and his partner. The different therapeutic modalities are reviewed: their choice should be based on duration, spreading and localization of the lesions, age and immunological status of the patient. The problem of treating condylomata acuminata during pregnancy is also discussed.
