title: Ultrasonic surgical aspiration to treat genital condyloma acuminata in children.
abstract: We report on the technique of ultrasonic surgical aspiration for the treatment of genital condyloma acuminata in three prepubertal girls. All surgical procedures were done under general anesthesia, and no patient required hospitalization. Adequate samples for pathologic evaluation were obtained. This technique resulted in minimal discomfort, rapid healing, and no scarring.
