Abstract
From 1950-1978, condyloma acuminatum was diagnosed in 746 residents (246 males, 500 females). With the number of cases increasing almost every yr until 1975, the mean annual incidence rate reached 106.5/100,000 population in the period 1975-1978, apparently the highest reported to date. Among age groups, the rate was highest in the 20-24 yr-old group. Female patients contracted the infection at a higher rate, and at a younger age, than male patients. Anal condyloma occurred in 1/3 of the male subjects studied, and recurrent condyloma in 30% of the male subjects. More female than male patients had lesions at multiple locations.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
