Abstract
-
A 20 year old woman with noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) developed an extensive warty and focally cauliflower like mass located at anogenital area. Its histopathologic study and in situ DNA hybridization revealed this lesion an ordinary condyloma acuminatum without large bulbous downward proliferation of which HPV type was 6 and/or 11. The mass lesion was successfully treated by excision and electrodesiccation under spinal anesthesia. Intermittent recurrence of several papular condylomata acuminata was observed during a follow up period of 6 months, which were easily cured by podophylline application on each occasion.
