Condyloma acuminatum in the oral cavity: four cases and a review.
The number of reported cases of condyloma acuminatum has increased rapidly in recent years. While the viral etiology of these lesions has been established, differentiation from other papular growths is often difficult. Reports of condyloma acuminatum lesions in the oral cavity are appearing more frequently, although they still are sparse. Four cases of oral condyloma are described, and the English-language literature on other such cases is reviewed. Presumably, as the incidence of this type of infection continues to increase, oral condylomata will become a commoner diagnosis. Physicians and dentists should be aware of the necessity of recognizing wart-like eruptions in and around the oral cavity.
