Condylomata acuminata are benign anogenital warts caused by human papillomavirus (HPV), genotypes 6 and 11 being found in > 90 %

of cases. Patients with visible warts may be infected simultaneously with oncogenic high-risk HPVs such as types 16 and 18, with mostly

give rise to subclinical leasions associated with anogenital cancer. Common treatments are destructive procedures (e. g. cryotherapy,

electrosurgery, laser ablation, surgical excision, trichloracetic acid, podophyllotoxin or imiquimod), and aim to destroy visible lesions

rather than their underlying viral cause.

Keywords: external genital warts, HPV, imiquimod.
