Condyloma in the tongue

[摘要] The acuminated condyloma is a sexually transmissible disease caused by the Papilomavirus (HPV). It is frequently found in the anus-genital region and rare in the mouth cavity. However, the increase of the oral-sexual activity has even more favored the occurrence of the HPV in the oral mucous. This report describes a condyloma in the oral cavity of a 35-year old man with a history of oral sex practice, which diagnostic was confirmed by a biopsy. The treatment for his case was clinical through the use of TCA (trichloro acetic acid, at 80%) with a total restoration of the lesion. A literature review was carried out on the incidence, clinical, diagnosis, treatment, and prophylaxis of the disease.
