Cell-mediated immunity and condylomatosis.
Cell-mediated response in 60 patients affected by acuminated condylomas has been studied; this was investigated with aspecific in vivo tests (intradermal-reaction with tuberculin, trichophytin, candidine) and by in vitro tests (blood test with cell count, lymphocyte typing, serum proteins, serum immunoglobulin) and was compared with a control group. The results obtained confirm the hypothesis that condylomas acuminata usually occurs in patients with well-preserved cell-mediated immunity.
