Condylomata acuminata are frequently occurring genital warts, but little is known about clinical features of the genital warts in transsexuals and their incidence. We report a case of condylomata acuminata arising on the neourethral meatus and the transplanted skin of the neovagina in a male-to-female transsexual, which was successfully treated with CO2 laser irradiation followed by topical application of imiquimod cream on the residual warts. This is a first report of using imiquimod cream for condylomata acuminata arising on the neovagina in a male-to-female transsexual.

Department of Dermatology, University of Florida College of Medicine, Gainesville, Florida.
Infantile perianal pyramidal protrusion is characterized by a light pink to skin-colored soft tissue protrusion that is often midline and anterior [A1]to the anus. It most commonly occurs in young females and is relatively asymptomatic. Although biopsies are not routinely done, histopathology is relatively nonspecific and can appear similar to an acrochordon.

Article Synopsis
- Viral infections, such as plantar warts and herpes labialis, are prevalent among young competitive swimmers, with a study examining 1,047 swimmers in Greek clubs revealing significant correlations with age and years of training.
- The study found that outdoor practice environments led to higher infection rates, and specific behaviors like walking barefoot and sharing equipment were linked to increased risks of herpes simplex and plantar warts.
- Effective prevention strategies, including proper hygiene and medical guidance, are crucial to minimizing the impact of these infections on swimmers' health and performance.
Warts, benign epidermal proliferations, are a direct result of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, specifically targeting the keratinocytes within the stratum corneum of the skin. The development of warts is the most common clinical manifestation of HPV, with plantar warts, condylomata acuminata, and common warts being the most frequently observed types. These growths can be unsightly and sometimes painful, affecting the quality of life for those afflicted.

In this cohort study a total of 203 women with genital warts, who were referred to gynecology clinic of Shahid Muftah in Yasuj city between 2019 and 2022, were examined and treated by a gynecologist and trained for injection of three doses of Gardasil vaccine after treatment. Of these, 138 women completed the study. Half of them who received three doses of the Gardasil vaccine, aligned in vaccinated group and the other half served as the unvaccinated group.

Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed cancer trends related to human papillomavirus (HPV) in Denmark from 2000 to 2022, focusing on cervical precancer, genital warts, and overall disease burden post-HPV vaccination.
- Findings revealed a significant decline in age-standardized incidence rates (ASRs) for cervical precancer and genital warts, particularly among women, while HPV-associated cancers have been rising in men and non-cervical sites among women.
- The conclusion emphasized that, even with vaccination efforts leading to decreased cases of certain HPV-related conditions, HPV-associated diseases continue to pose a public health challenge, especially among men.
