Re: infectious disease q 8401glacieres - 01-21-08 12:58 A------Condyloma Acumanata
Pedenculated and exophytic are 2 discriptions ahich go in favour of the above. Usually caused by HPV serovars 16, 18, 31, 33 are most commonly believed to be the cause. Diagnosis of CAccuminata is by 1) SOUTHERN BLOT for genotype
2) ELISA for detection of antibodies against HPV 16 capsid.
Rx is by CRYOSURGERY.
