Human Pappiloma Virus Associated with Genital Infection

Genital human pappiloma virus (HPV) infections are among the most common sexually transmitted diseases. HPV is associated with a spectrum of diseases ranging from benign vulgar verrucae and condylomata accuminata to malignant cancers of the cervix, vulva, anus and penis. Genital HPV is in most cases transmitted sexually, but non-sexual routes of transmission, such as perinatal and autoinoculation, are possible. Men can be a reservoir of the virus that lives in latent or subclinical form on genital mucosa. Such an asymptomatic infection may be an oncogenic factor in the development of the identification of subclinical HPV infection. Successful therapy of anogenital warts is characterizedby their complete clearance, as well as by the lack of recurrence. Current treatments d onot reliably eradicate HPV infections. The diagnosis and therapy of HPV infection in men is potentially beneficital because the eraditacion of penile HPV infection may decrease the reservoir of the virus.
