Abstract
Condylomata Acuminata, or genital warts, are a result of infection with HPV (human papillomavirus), and are often asymptomatic. Occasionally, patients complain of itching, burning, or tenderness. They can involve the cervical or vaginal mucosa, as well as external genitalia or anus. Treatment includes patient-applied and provider-administered applications of topical medications, as well as procedures for removal. Asymptomatic warts can be monitored for spontaneous resolution. Recurrence is common.
