title: [Venereal vegetations of the urogenital tract and their urological complications. Apropos of 257 cases].
abstract: A retrospective study was conducted during 8 years to determine the epidemiological features of condyloma and its complications in patients attending urology consultations in Lomé teaching hospital. During this period, 257 cases (218 males, 38 females) of condyloma were diagnosed. The condyloma represented the fifth cause of consultation in urology, after genito-urinary infection (n = 1214), prostatic dysuria (n = 1095), vesicovaginal fistula (n = 849), lower tractus urinary lithiasis (n = 500). The average age of the patients was 28 years (range: 14-57). In 51 cases the condyloma were associated with others sexually transmitted diseases: 25 cases of gonococcal infection, 11 cases of chancroid, 9 cases of vaginal candidiasis, and 6 cases of genital trichomoniasis. We noted 41 cases of urological complications: 19 cases of urinary infection, 13 cases of retention of urine, 7 cases of urinary forked jet, and 2 cases of urethrorrhagia. The results of this study shows that, the condyloma is commun sexually transmitted disease seen in urology clinic. Its classically benign course in patients males, were predominant, in this sex, by the urinary infection and urological mechanical accidents.
