    Area of Science:

    • Pediatrics
    • Dermatology
    • Infectious Diseases

    Background:

    • Condyloma acuminata (venereal warts) are sexually transmitted infections caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV).
    • There has been an observed increase in adult cases over the past decade.
    • Transmission occurs primarily through sexual intercourse but can also happen at birth or via close contact.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report on 14 pediatric cases of condyloma acuminata.
    • To highlight the association between childhood condyloma acuminata and potential sexual abuse or early sexual activity.
    • To review treatment modalities and diagnostic considerations.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective case series of 14 children diagnosed with condyloma acuminata.
    • Age range from 6 months to 17 years.

  • Inclusion of medical history, social history, and documented treatment outcomes.

    • Main Results:

    • Equal sex incidence observed among the pediatric cases.
    • Most cases presented with associated social and family issues.
    • Two documented cases of sexual abuse were identified; one case linked to medical procedures.

    Conclusions:

    • Childhood condyloma acuminata necessitates a high index of suspicion for sexual abuse or early sexual activity.
    • Comprehensive medical and social histories are crucial for diagnosis and management.
    • Recommended investigations include VDRL and cultures for Gonococcus.
