Abstract
A descriptive, longitudinal and prospective study was carried out at the Policlínico Universitario “Marta Abreu”, in the city of Santa Clara, province of Villa Clara, Cuba, in the period from April 2011 to December 2012. It aimed to characterize the clinicalepidemiological relationship in patients with condyloma acuminatum infection. Three thousand three hundred fifty four (3 354) patients who were attended in the dermatological consultation represented the universe; the sample taken of 49 affected patients with clinical diagnosis of condyloma acuminatum was determined through the method of convenience sampling. The information was collected from the questionnaire (Annex I) applied to patients with a clinical diagnosis of condyloma acuminatum, from the Department of Statistics, Individual Clinical Stories and Interviews, scientific journals and updated Internet sources. The condyloma acuminatum (usually called genital wart or venereal wart) is considered the most frequent STI and ranks second in importance after HIV / AIDS. Infection by condyloma acuminatum in the ages between 20 and 29 years, male sex, initiation of sexual relations at an early age at 15 or 17 years old, eventual use of the condom, and multiple sexual partners in the year predominated according to the study conducted. Topical treatment with podophyllin at 25% predominated and the evolution was unsatisfactory.
