Condyloma acuminatum in a 3-year old girl
Hiroshima Journal of Medical Sciences
|December 1, 1991
Abstract:
We report the case of 3-year-old girl with condyloma acuminatum. She was brought to our clinic with pruritus, painful urination and four discharge and treated with electrocautery. Histological examination revealed acanthosis, nuclear basophilic inclusions and vacuolar degeneration. In this case, transmission of the human papilloma virus might have occurred during close, non-sexual contact with the infected mother, and the depressed immune response associated with atopic dermatitis appears to have played an important role in the development of the condyloma acuminatum infection.
