Condyloma acuminatum is a sexually transmitted disease, mainly caused by HPV infection. There are many genotypes of HPV, and infection with different genotypes can lead to different clinical lesions. The morbidity of condyloma acuminatum is related to low-risk HPV (such as HPV6, 11), which usually does not lead to malignant lesions such as genital tumors. Condyloma acuminatum is mainly manifested as vegetations around the external genitalia and anus, which can be cured after regular treatment.
Relationship between
cervical cancer and HPV
Cervical cancer is the only gynecological malignant tumor with clear etiology, which is closely related to the persistent infection of high-risk HPV. High-risk HPV (such as HPV16, 18, etc.) Infection of cervical cells can lead to abnormal proliferation of cervical cells, and then develop into cervical cancer. Early symptoms of cervical cancer include vaginal bleeding and vaginal discharge.
Association
between condyloma acuminatum and cervical cancer
Common etiology: Both condyloma acuminatum and cervical cancer are associated with human papillomavirus infection, but the types of HPV that cause morbidity are different.
Risk factors: Patients with CA are at high risk for cervical cancer because they are already infected with HPV. However, not all patients with condyloma acuminatum will develop cervical cancer, which depends on many factors, such as immunity, living habits and so on.
Prevention and treatment
Prevention: The key to prevent condyloma acuminatum and cervical cancer is to avoid HPV infection. This can be achieved by eliminating sexual disorder, rational use of condoms, vaccination of HPV and so on. In addition, maintaining good personal hygiene habits is also an important means to prevent these two diseases.
Treatment: For patients with condyloma acuminatum, the main treatment methods include drug therapy, traditional Chinese medicine therapy, physical therapy (such as cryotherapy, laser therapy, etc.) And surgical treatment. For cervical cancer patients, treatment methods include radiotherapy, surgery and chemotherapy * Youjia Viral Warts Medical Research Institute published a paper in the Academic Journal of Chinese Sexology in 2019: a case of giant perianal condyloma
