ABSTRACT

Introducción: El condiloma acuminado gigante es una rara enfermedad que se manifiesta en el 0,1 % de las personas con vida sexual activa, su tratamiento es variable; la cirugía es el más radical y definitivo, aunque la recurrencia no es despreciable. Ante grandes defectos de la región perianal luego de la resección es útil la rotación de colgajos para recubrir el defecto. Objetivos: Exponer el tratamiento quirúrgico reconstructivo realizado a un paciente con tumor de Büschke-Löwenstein perianal. Caso clínico: Paciente masculino de 47 años, afroamericano, con antecedentes de infección por el VIH, diagnosticado 8 meses antes de la consulta por el cuadro actual; en tratamiento con antirretrovirales. Acude a consulta con una lesión anal en forma de coliflor, que ocupa un diámetro de aproximadamente 10 cm; se le realizó un procedimiento quirúrgico para tratamiento definitivo, mediante escisión y anoplastia con colgajo en V-Y y se extirpó a lesión vegetante sobre el borde interno del glúteo derecho, cuya área formó parte del colgajo V-Y. Conclusiones: Las técnicas reconstructivas en la región perianal se deben individualizar en cada caso, en dependencia del tipo de defecto, su topografía y las condiciones locales; aunque pudiese existir la preferencia de una sobre otras, la literatura científica no aporta suficiente evidencia al respecto. La técnica reconstructiva realizada al paciente demostró que, aun con altas tasas de recurrencia y complicaciones, resultó efectiva para el paciente pese a tener comorbilidades que pudieron influir en una evolución tórpida.


Introduction: The giant condyloma acuminata is a rare disease that manifests itself in 0.1% of people with an active sexual life, its treatment is variable, surgery being the most radical and definitive, although recurrence is not negligible. In case of large defects in the perianal region after resection, flap rotation is useful to cover the defect. Objectives: To expose the reconstructive surgical treatment performed on a patient with perianal Büschke-Löwenstein tumor. Clinical case: A 47-year-old African American male patient with a history of HIV infection diagnosed 8 months prior to the current consultation, in treatment with antiretrovirals. Who came to the clinic with an anal lesion in the shape of a cauliflower, which occupies a diameter of approximately 10 cm, a surgical procedure was performed as a definitive treatment through excision and anoplasty with a V-Y flap, and the vegetative lesion on the edge was excised, internal of the right gluteus whose area was part of the V-Y flap. Conclusions: Reconstructive techniques in the perianal region must be individualized in each case, depending on the type of defect, its topography, and local conditions, and although there may be a preference for one over others, the scientific literature does not provide sufficient evidence in this regard. The reconstructive technique performed on the patient showed that even with high rates of recurrence and complications, it was effective for the patient despite having comorbidities that could influence a torpid evolution.

ABSTRACT

Objetivos: A infecção pelo papiloma vírus humano dos tipos 6 e 11 pode evoluir para Condiloma Acuminado. Sua transmissão é principalmente via sexual, de forma que a presença dessas verrugas em crianças deve ser consi-derada sinal de alarme para investigação de abuso. Eventualmente, contudo, ocorre por autoinoculação ou fômites. O tratamento é desafiador, dado que apesar do extenso arsenal, a recorrência se faz comum. A presente revisão siste-mática advém a comparar taxas de sucesso das estratégias terapêuticas, objetivando fornecer substrato para escolhaacertada no tratamento da doença em crianças e adolescentes. Métodos: Foi realizada Revisão Sistemática baseada no GuidelinePreferred Report Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), registrada na Plataforma PROSPERO sob identificação CRD42021262090. Resultados: 211 estudos foram encontrados nasdatabases con-sultadas, de forma que 30 atenderam as propostas de critérios estabelecidos na pesquisa sistematizada. Esses pas-saram extração de dados para síntese qualitativa, demonstrando eficácia de métodos não-invasivos a invasivos.Conclusões: Mediante bons resultados em resolução da doença e reduzidos efeitos adversos, a terapia mais popular entre os autores foi o Imiquimode. A pesquisa chamou atenção à necessidade de estudos mais robustos e metodo-logias mais complexas acerca das abordagens terapêuticas do Condiloma Acuminado em crianças e adolescentes. (AU)


Objectives: Infection with human papillomavirus types 6 and 11 can progress to Condyloma acuminata. Its transmission is mainly sexual, so these warts in children should be considered an alarm signal for abuse investigation. Eventually, however, it occurs by autoinoculation or fomites. Treatment is challenging, given that despite the extensive arsenal, recurrence is common. The present systematic review compares the success rates of therapeutic strategies, aiming to provide a substrate for the right choice in the treatment of the disease in children and adolescents. Methods: Asystematic review was performed based on the guideline for Preferred Report Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), registered on the PROSPERO Platform under identification CRD42021262090. Results: 211 studies were found in thedatabasesconsulted, and 30 met the proposed criteria established in the systematic research. These passed data extraction for qualitative synthesis, demonstrating the effectiveness of non-invasive to invasive methods. Conclusions: Due to good results in disease resolution and reduced adverse effects, the most popular therapy among the authors was Imiquimod. The research called attention to the need for more robust studies and more complex methodologies about the therapeutic approaches of Condyloma Acuminatum in children and adolescents. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Introdução: O Condiloma uretral é uma infecção sexualmente transmissível comum associada ao vírus do papiloma humano. O acometimento na uretra é raro, principalmente quando trata-se de um paciente HIV positivo com carga viral indetectável. Objetivo: Tem como objetivo discutir sobre o acometimento uretral do papiloma vírus e as possíveis formas de tratamento, assim como revisar a literatura. Relato de caso: O paciente em questão apresentou suspeita de carcinoma de células de transição, sendo encaminhado para tratamento, porém afastado essa suspeita e fechando diagnóstico para lesão condilomatosa uretral, sendo realizado tratamento por ressecção endoscópica das lesões com energia monopolar. Discussão: O acometimento uretral ocorre em até 5% dos casos, e o mesmo apresenta alta probabilidade de malignização. Não existem diretrizes específicas sobre o manejo do condiloma intra-uretral, pois trata-se de uma patologia rara. O objetivo dos tratamentos é remover as verrugas e induzir períodos livre de lesões, sendo que o conservador com crioterapia e o ácido tricloroacético nem sempre são aplicáveis à uretra devido ao difícil acesso. A ressecção endoscópica das lesões tem se mostrado mais eficaz. Conclusão: Urologistas e patologistas devem estar cientes dessa rara possibilidade, a fim de evitar erros de diagnóstico acerca dessa entidade predominantemente benigna. Desta forma apresentamos um caso de ressecção endoscópica de extensa lesão condilomatosa em uretra peniana de uma paciente masculino hemofílico e HIV positivo. [au]


Introduction: Urethral condyloma is a common sexually transmitted infection associated with the human papillomavirus (HPV). Affection in the urethra is rare, especially when dealing with an HIV positive patient with an undetectable viral load. Objective: It aims to discuss the urethral involvement of the papillomavirus and the possible forms of treatment, as well as to review the literature. Case report: The patient in question presented suspicion of transitional cell carcinoma, being referred for treatment, but this suspicion was removed and the diagnosis of urethral condylomatous lesion was closed, with treatment by endoscopic resection of the lesions with monopolar energy. Discussion: Urethral involvement occurs in up to 5% of cases, and it has a high probability of malignancy. There are no specific guidelines on the management of intra-urethral condyloma, as it is a rare condition. The goal of treatments is to remove warts and induce injury-free periods, the conservative with cryotherapy and trichloroacetic acid not always being applicable to the urethra due to difficult access. Endoscopic resection of the lesions has been shown to be more effective. Conclusion: urologists and pathologists should be aware of this rare possibility, in order to avoid diagnostic errors about this predominantly benign entity. Thus, we present a case of endoscopic resection of an extensive condylomatous lesion in the penile urethra of a male patient with hemophilia and HIV positive. [au]

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Las infecciones de transmisión sexual constituyen un relevante problema de salud a nivel mundial; particularmente afectan la salud sexual de las mujeres ocasionando dolencias y efectos muy negativos, como la infertilidad, los embarazos ectópicos y el cáncer cervicouterino. Objetivo: Describir las características epidemiológicas de las infecciones de transmisión sexual relevantes en mujeres de Santiago de Cuba. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y retrospectivo en la provincia de Santiago de Cuba de la población femenina que presentó infecciones de transmisión sexual durante el período 2007-2017, detallando cada afección según año, municipio, edad, entre otras variables de interés. Asimismo, se analizaron la frecuencia, las tasas de incidencia, las tendencias y las variaciones temporales. Resultados: Las entidades clínicas predominantes fueron el síndrome de dolor pélvico y la secreción vaginal, en tanto, las menos frecuentes resultaron ser el herpes genital y la blenorragia. En el análisis por cada tipo de infección se observó una mayor afectación en féminas de edades jóvenes. Conclusiones: Las infecciones de transmisión sexual constituyen un serio problema de salud en mujeres de la provincia de Santiago de Cuba, que deviene causa importante de embarazos ectópicos y esterilidad. Sin embargo, se debe mejorar la vigilancia epidemiológica de estas enfermedades, pues existe un marcado subregistro de algunas y, por ende, una inadecuada atención, sobre todo en el sexo femenino.


Introduction: Sexually transmitted infections constitute an outstanding health problem worldwide; they particularly affect the sexual health of women causing ailments and very negative effects as infertility, ectopic pregnancies and cervical uterine cancer. Objective: To describe the epidemiologic characteristics of the outstanding sexually transmitted infections in women from Santiago de Cuba. Methods: A descriptive and retrospective study was carried out in the province of Santiago de Cuba in the female population that presented sexually transmitted infections during 2007-2017, with details of each affection according to year, municipality, age, among other variables of interest. Also, frequency, rates of incidence, tendencies and temporary variations were analyzed. Results: The predominant clinical entities were the pelvic pain syndrome and vaginal secretion, as long as, the less frequent were genital herpes and blennorrhagia. In the analysis for each type of infection a higher affectation was observed in young females. Conclusions: Sexually transmitted infections constitute a serious health problem in women from the province of Santiago de Cuba that becomes important cause of ectopic pregnancies and sterility. However, the epidemiologic surveillance of these diseases should be improved, because there is a marked subrecord of some of them and, therefore, an inadequate care, mainly in the female sex.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Introduction: The reactivations of latent virus after bone marrow transplants affect the outcome of these patients. Hemorrhagic cystitis caused by BK virus, constitute a frequently lethal complication characterized by abdominal pain, hematuria and renal damage. The incidence is between 13-70 % in hematopoietic transplant receptors. The management includes antibiotics, antivirals, hyperhydration and forced diuresis, platelets and hyperbaric oxygen. Condyloma acuminatum of the anus associated to human papillomavirus is rare among transplanted patients (0.3-1.3 %). It is characterized by an invading mass in the region of the anus producing pain and bleeding. The treatment of choice is the surgical resection of the tumor. Objectives: To describe the clinical characteristics and evolution of hemorrhagic cystitis and anal condyloma acuminatum in a receptor of haploidentical hematopoietic transplant. Discussion: A 20-year-old man with diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia, on day +21 post-transplant presented macroscopic hematuria associated to BK virus reactivation and resolved with hyperbaric oxygen. On day + 59 post-transplant, anal pain started and a perianal, cauliflower-like mass over 5 cm, was observed. He was diagnosed with condyloma acuminatum of the anus and surgical resection was successfully performed. Conclusions: We reported a unique case of concurrence of both, hemorrhagic cystitis and condyloma acuminatum of the anus after haploidentical hematopoietic transplant. The proper management of these two pathologies allowed a satisfactory evolution of the patient.


RESUMEN Introducción: La reactivación de virus latentes en el organismo después del trasplante de progenitores hematopoyéticos (TPH) afecta la evolución de estos pacientes. La cistitis hemorrágica por virus BK constituye una complicación frecuentemente mortal caracterizada por dolor suprapúbico, hematuria y daño renal. La incidencia varía entre 13 y 70 % de los receptores de trasplante hematopoyético. El tratamiento comprende el uso de antibióticos, antivirales, hidratación y diuresis forzada, plaquetas y oxígeno hiperbárico. El condiloma acuminado del ano asociado al virus del papiloma humano es extremadamente raro en pacientes trasplantados (0,3-1,3 %). Se caracteriza por una masa que invade la región del ano produciendo dolor y sangramiento. El tratamiento de elección consiste en la resección quirúrgica del tumor. Objetivos: Describir las características clínicas, el manejo y la evolución de cistitis hemorrágica y condiloma acuminado anal en un receptor de trasplante hematopoyético haploidéntico. Presentación del caso: Paciente de 20 años de edad con diagnóstico de leucemia mieloide aguda que en el día + 21 del trasplante comenzó con hematuria macroscópica asociada a virus BK que resolvió con oxígeno hiperbárico. En el día +59 comenzó con dolor anal y se observó una masa perianal en forma de coliflor de aproximadamente 5 cm. Se diagnosticó condiloma acuminado del ano y se realizó resección quirúrgica del tumor con todo éxito. Conclusiones: Se presenta un caso único donde concurren cistitis hemorrágica y condiloma acuminado del ano después del trasplante hematopoyético haploidéntico. El manejo apropiado de estas dos patologías condujo a la evolución satisfactoria del paciente.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Fundamento: el tumor de Buschke-Löwenstein es un condiloma acuminado gigante mayor de 10 cm más frecuente en hombres, por lo que el tratamiento de elección debe ser siempre quirúrgico. Objetivo: describir un caso de condiloma acuminado gigante. Presentación del caso: paciente masculino blanco de 54 años de edad, que acudió a consulta con formaciones papilomatosis con aspecto de coliflor de consistencia blanda y húmedas, en ambas regiones inguinales; del lado derecho de 13 cm de diámetro y de 19 cm la izquierda y en la raíz del pene y región perianal de 2 cm, asociadas a dolor de ligera intensidad en miembros inferiores y fetidez ocasional. Se le realizaron estudios preoperatorios incluidos serología y VIH no reactivos. Se operó, realizándole exéresis y cierre con colgajo cutáneo abdominal. Evolucionó estable clínicamente, aunque presentó una infección de la herida quirúrgica donde se reportó Escherichia coli, sensible a gentamicina; cumplió con el tratamiento y egresó sin complicaciones posteriores. Conclusiones: el tumor de Buschke-Löwenstein se considera en la actualidad como una forma de carcinoma verrucoso, no presenta atipias celulares, descrito como benigno, pero un tercio de los casos puede malignizar. No obstante, por las frecuentes recidivas, es considerado por algunos autores como un tumor maligno. A pesar de existir varios tratamientos, es el quirúrgico el de mejores resultados.


ABSTRACT Background: the Buschke-Löwenstein tumor is a giant acuminate condyloma larger than 10 cm, more frequent in men, so the treatment of choice must always be surgical. Objective: to describe a case of giant acuminate condylomata. Case report: 54-year-old white male patient, who came with papillomatosis formations with soft and moist consistency of cauliflower, in both inguinal regions; on the right side of 13 centimeters in diameter and 19 centimeters on the left and at the root of the penis and perianal region of 2 centimeters, associated with pain of slight intensity in the lower limbs and occasional fetidity. Preoperative studies including non-reactive serology and HIV were performed. He underwent surgery, performing excision and closure with abdominal skin flap. He evolved clinically stable, although he presented an infection of the surgical wound where Escherichia Coli, gentamicin sensitive, was reported; he complied with treatment and left without further complications. Conclusions: Buschke-Löwenstein tumor is currently considered as a form of verrucous carcinoma, it does not present cellular atypia, described as benign, but one third of the cases can be maligne. Despite frequent recurrences, some authors consider it as a malignant tumor. Despite the existence of several treatments, the surgical treatment is the one with the best results.

ABSTRACT

O tumor de Buschke-Lowenstein (TBL) é variante extremamente rara do condiloma acuminado que, apesar de manifestar-se clinicamente por lesões de grandes proporções, apresenta comportamento biológico e características histológicas benignas. Existem diversas abordagens terapêuticas disponíveis, muitas delas apoiando-se em abordagens cirúrgicas extensas e mutilantes. Apresentamos dois casos de pacientes com TBL tratados com podofilina tópica, cujas respostas terapêuticas foram extremamente favoráveis em ambos os casos.


Buschke-Lowenstein tumor (BLT) is an extremely rare variant of condylomata acuminata that despite being clinically presented by large lesions, presents a benign biological behavior and histological characteristics. There are a number of therapeutic approaches available, many of which rely on extensive and mutilating surgical procedures. We present two cases of patients with BLT treated with topical podophyllin whose therapeutic responses were extremely favorable in both cases.

ABSTRACT

A infecção genital pelo papilomavírus humano ocorre em 65% das vezes após contato com pele e mucosa contaminadas. A maioria das pessoas elimina o vírus através do sistema imune. Fatores individuais, como tabagismo, idade, multiparidade, uso prolongado de contraceptivos hormonais, comportamento sexual e infecção por outras doenças sexualmente transmissíveis, ocasionam perpetuação viral e lesões genitais, em sua maior parte, assintomáticas. As regiões mais afetadas são anogenitais. O tratamento deve ser individualizado. O tratamento agressivo pode ocasionar distúrbios cicatriciais. Relatamos um caso de múltiplos tratamentos para retirada de condiloma genital com consequente formação de extenso queloide vulvar


Genital infection by Human Papillomavirus occurs 65% of the time after contact with contaminated skin and mucosa. Most people eliminate the virus through the immune system. Individual factors such as smoking, age, multiparity, prolonged use of hormonal contraceptives, sexual behavior, and infection by other Sexually Transmitted Diseases cause viral perpetuation and genital lesions, most of them asymptomatic. The most affected regions are anogenital. Treatment should be individualized. Excessive treatment can lead to scarring. We report a case of multiple treatments for removal of genital condyloma with consequent formation of extensive vulvar keloid

ABSTRACT

O condiloma acuminado é causado pelo DNA-vírus, que pertence ao grupo papovavírus. Em menores de três anos, a transmissão tende a não ser por abuso sexual, mas, sim, de maneira vertical. Não existe consenso para o tratamento das verrugas anogenitais em crianças. O método escolhido é individualizado para o paciente, sendo a preferência por tratamentos menos traumáticos, com menor sequela. Embora ainda existam algumas restrições ao uso do imiquimode em menores de 12 anos, estudos já mostram o sucesso desta terapêutica nesta faixa etária. Será descrito um caso tratado com imiquimode creme a 5%, com resolução das lesões preexistentes


DNA-virus, which belongs to the papillomavirus group, causes Condylomata acuminata. In children under 3 years of age, transmission tends not to be due to sexual abuse but rather vertically. There is no consensus for the treatment of anogenital warts in children. The chosen method is individualized for each patient, preferring less traumatic treatments, with fewer sequelae. Although there are still some restrictions on the imiquimod use in children under 12, studies have already shown this therapy's success in this age group. We report a case treated with 5% imiquimod cream with the resolution of pre-existing lesions.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Genital warts are benign lesions caused by sexual transmission of human papillomavirus types 6 and 11, with significant impact on healthcare resource use and patients' quality of life. Objective: To describe the epidemiology of genital warts in adults visiting a physician office for any reason, physician practice patterns, and healthcare resource use and costs in Colombia. Methods: Participants were a convenience sample of 53 physicians in 5 specialties: primary care (15), gynecology (24), urology (12), proctology (1), and dermatology (1). Physicians completed a survey and daily log of all patients 18-60 years old seen over 10 days in their practices in 2016-2017. The physician survey recorded genital warts consultation and management patterns. The daily log recorded patient demographic information and genital warts diagnosis. Results: Among 6,393 patients logged by physicians, the genital warts prevalence was 2.03% (95%CI 1.69­2.38) and incidence 1.30% (95%CI 1.02­1.58). Primary care physicians referred most of their genital warts cases for treatment (female: mean 63.3%, SD=44.8; male: mean 58.3%, SD=43.8). Treatment of non-resistant episodes (<6-month duration) lasted an average of 37.4 days (SD=29.4) and required an average of 4.0 (SD=1.9) office visits for females and 3.0 (SD=1.7) for males. The overall mean cost of an episode of care was USD558.13 (SD=507.30). Conclusion: Genital warts cases reported by most participant physicians were mainly direct-consult, but patients were typically treated by specialists. Much of the genital warts health care utilization and costs reported could be prevented by immunization with the quadrivalent or nonavalent HPV vaccine.


Introdução: As verrugas genitais são lesões benignas, de transmissão sexual, causadas pelo papilomavírus humano tipos 6 e 11 e que causam impacto significativo no uso de recursos de saúde e na qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Objetivo: Descrever a epidemiologia das verrugas genitais em adultos que buscaram atendimento médico ambulatorial por qualquer motivo, incluindo padrões de prática médica, uso de recursos de saúde e custos na Colômbia. Métodos: foi utilizada uma amostra de conveniência composta por 53 médicos em 5 especialidades: clínico geral (15), ginecologia (24), urologia (12), proctologia (1) e dermatologia (1). Os médicos completaram um questionário e registros diários de todos os pacientes com idade entre 18 e 60 anos atendidos durante 10 dias em seus consultórios em 2016-2017. O questionário registrou os padrões de prática médica e de tratamento de verrugas genitais. Os registros diários continham informações demográficas do paciente e o diagnóstico de verrugas genitais. Resultados: Entre 6.393 atendimentos médicos, a prevalência das verrugas genitais foi de 2,03% (IC95% 1,69­2,38) e a incidência de 1,30% (IC95% 1,02­1,58). Os clínicos gerais encaminharam a maioria dos pacientes com verrugas genitais para tratamento (mulheres: média de 63,3%, DP=44,8; homens: média de 58,3%, DP=43,8). O tratamento dos casos não-persistentes (<6 meses de duração) durou em média 37,4 dias (DP=29,4) e requereu uma média de 4,0 (DP=1,9) consultas para mulheres e 3,0 (DP=1,7) para homens. O custo médio geral do tratamento foi de US$ 558,13 (SD=507,30). Conclusão: Os casos de verrugas genitais relatados pela maioria dos médicos participantes derivaram-se principalmente de atendimentos primários e os pacientes foram tratados geralmente por especialistas. Grande parte da utilização de recursos e custos relacionados a verrugas genitais poderia ser evitada pela imunização com a vacina papilomavírus humano 4-valente ou 9-valente.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Aim: to evaluate the presence of subclinical HPV-induced anal lesions with anal cytology, High-Resolution Anoscopy (HRA) and HPV genotyping by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the follow-up of treated condylomata acuminata (CA). Methods: seventy-nine male patients were included. One month after anal CA eradication, the patients underwent brush samples collection for anal cytology and PCR, and HRA with biopsy of acetowhite lesions. These methods were compared within all patients and between groups, according to Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection status: HIV-negative; HIV-positive with TCD4 count above and below 350 cells/mm3. Results: the most frequent HPV types were 6 and 16. HPV DNA was isolated in 92%. HIV infection was associated with a higher number of oncogenic HPV types (p=0.038). All patients with negative PCR had negative HRA and cytology. There were no differences in cytological, HRA or histopathological findings between groups. Conclusion: the association of the findings of cytopathology, HRA and genotyping of HPV refined the diagnosis of HPV-induced lesions. The degree of immunodeficiency was not associated with increase in remnant HPV-induced anal lesions.


RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar a presença de lesões anais subclínicas HPV-induzidas com citologia anal, colposcopia anal e genotipagem de HPV por reação em cadeia da polimerase (PCR) no seguimento de condilomas anais tratados. Método: foram incluídos 79 pacientes do sexo masculino. Após um mês da erradicação de lesões condilomatosas anais, os participantes voltaram em consulta para coleta de amostras com escova para citologia anal e PCR, e colposcopia anal com biópsia de lesões acetobrancas. Os métodos de detecção das lesões foram comparados entre os pacientes e entre grupos, de acordo com o status de infecção pelo vírus da imunodeficiência humana (HIV): HIV-negativo; HIV-positivo com TCD4 acima ou abaixo de 350 células/mm3. Resultados: os tipos de HPV mais frequentes foram 6 e 16. Infecção pelo HIV foi associada a maior número de tipos de HPV oncogênicos (p=0,038). Todos os pacientes com PCR negativo apresentaram colposcopia e citologia negativos. Não houve diferença nos achados citológico, colposcópico ou histopatológico entre grupos. Conclusão: a associação dos achados citopatológico, colposcópico e PCR melhorou a acurácia do diagnóstico de lesões anais HPV-induzidas. O grau de imunodeficiência não foi associado a maior frequência de lesões anais HPV-induzidas remanescentes.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Introducción: se ha identificado un incremento de pacientes pediátricos con condilomas acuminados. Objetivo: evaluar la efectividad de los medicamentos homeopáticos en el tratamiento de los condilomas acuminados en niños de un mes a 18 años, en hospital pediátrico pinareño entre los años 2014 y 2015. Métodos: se realizó un estudio descriptivo longitudinal y prospectivo a un universo muestral de 33 niños, remitidos por el Dermatólogo a la consulta de Medicina Bioenergética y Natural del Hospital Pediátrico Provincial Docente Pepe Portilla de Pinar del Río, Cuba, durante los años 2014-2015, seguidos de forma evolutiva hasta el 2018. Se les aplicaron medicamentos homeopáticos seleccionados de forma tópica y sistémica. Resultados: no existió predominio de sexo, la edad más representada fue de 13-18 años, y la localización más frecuente fue genital con morfología clínica predominante coliflor, el modo de transmisión más frecuente fue por contacto sexual. En cuatro pacientes se corroboró abuso sexual, en el resto de los casos por hetero inoculación. La evolución fue satisfactoria con la aparición de lesiones en el tercer año de su seguimiento. Conclusiones: las verrugas ano genitales son un reto para el pediatra y el dermatólogo pedíatra, sobre todo sus mecanismos de transmisión. Los medicamentos homeopáticos resultaron eficaces en el tratamiento de los condilomas acuminados en niños.


ABSTRACT Introduction: an increase in pediatric patients with condyloma acuminata has been identified. Objective: to assess the effectiveness of homeopathic medicines in the treatment of condyloma acuminata in children from 1 month to 18 years at Pepe Portilla Pediatric Provincial Teaching Hospital in Pinar del Río between the years 2014 and 2015. Methods: a longitudinal and prospective descriptive study was carried out on a sampling target group of 33 children, referred by the Dermatologist to the Bioenergetic and Natural Medicine consultation at Pepe Portilla Pediatric Provincial Teaching Hospital in Pinar del Río, Cuba, during the years 2014-2015, performing a follow-up until 2018. Topical and systemic homeopathic medicines were chosen to apply to them. Results: there was no predominance of gender, the age most represented was 13-18 years, and the most frequent location was genital regions, predominantly cauliflower clinical morphology, the most frequent type of transmission was by sexual contact. In four patients sexual abuse was corroborated, in the rest of the cases by hetero inoculation, the evolution was satisfactory with the appearance of lesions in the third year of their follow-up. Conclusions: genital-anal warts are a challenge for the pediatricians and pediatric dermatologists; basically because of their mechanisms of transmission. Homeopathic medicines were effective in the treatment of condyloma acuminata in children.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Human papillomavirus types 6 and 11 cause 90% of genital warts. Although the epidemiology of cervical cancer and the distribution of human papillomavirus genotypes have been investigated in Ecuador, little is known about the occurrence of genital warts. Objective: To estimate the incidence and prevalence of genital warts among patients routinely presenting at the practice of physicians, describe the demographics of genital warts cases and highlight the physician specialties that treat genital warts, including patterns of consultation and referral in Ecuador. Methods: Participants were a convenience sample of physicians who treat and/or diagnose genital warts in their practices. Physicians completed a daily log, recording the demographics and diagnosis of genital warts in all patients aged 18 to 60 years seen over 10 days in their practices. Physicians then completed a survey recording their practice characteristics and referral patterns of genital warts. Results: A sample of 105 physicians of different specialties participated in the study. Among 12,133 patients, the prevalence of genital warts was 5.5%, and the incidence, 3.7%. Prevalence was 6.9% in men, peaking at 12.6% in those aged from 25 to 29 years old. Prevalence was 5.1% for females, peaking at 6.5% in those aged from 30 to 34 years old. Most women were seen in direct consultations (75%) rather than by referral ones (24%). Most physicians (72%) treated females with genital warts, except for primary care physicians, who referred most cases (88%). Conclusion: Cases of genital warts are frequently encountered by physicians in Ecuador and are typically treated by specialists rather than primary care physicians.


Introdução: Os tipos 6 e 11 do papilomavírus humano causam 90% das verrugas genitais. Embora a epidemiologia do câncer do colo do útero e a distribuição dos genótipos do papilomavírus humano tenham sido investigadas no Equador, pouco se sabe sobre a ocorrência das verrugas genitais. Objetivo: Estimar a incidência e a prevalência das verrugas genitais em pacientes atendidos rotineiramente na clínica médica, descrever os dados demográficos dos casos de verrugas genitais e determinar as especialidades médicas que tratam as verrugas genitais, incluindo os padrões de consulta e encaminhamento no Equador. Métodos: Foi realizada uma amostragem por conveniência com médicos que tratavam e/ou diagnosticam verrugas genitais em sua clínica médica. Os médicos registraram as suas atividades cotidianas em um diário, anotando dados demográficos e diagnóstico de verrugas genitais de todos os pacientes com idade entre 18 e 60 anos atendidos durante 10 dias em suas clínicas. Posteriormente, os médicos responderam a uma pesquisa sobre as características da conduta tomada e os padrões de encaminhamento médico das verrugas genitais. Resultados: Uma amostra de 105 médicos de diferentes especialidades participou do estudo. Entre 12.133 pacientes, a prevalência de verrugas genitais foi de 5,5% e a incidência foi de 3,7%. A prevalência foi de 6,9% no sexo masculino, atingindo o valor máximo de 12,6% na faixa etária de 25 a 29 anos. A prevalência foi de 5,1% para o sexo feminino, alcançando 6,5% entre 30 e 34 anos. Na maior parte dos casos, as mulheres foram tratadas predominantemente pelo médico que realizou o primeiro atendimento (75%) e não por meio de encaminhamento a outra especialidade (24%). A maioria dos médicos (72%) tratou mulheres com verrugas genitais, exceto os médicos de atenção primária, que em geral encaminharam os casos (88%). Conclusão: Casos de verrugas genitais são frequentemente diagnosticados por médicos no Equador e são mais frequentemente tratados por especialistas do que por médicos de atenção primária.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Anogenital warts are one of the major clinical manifestations of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). Case reports in children have grown in the last decades; however, there are still difficulties in determining the virus epidemiology and the best therapy for this age group. Objective: To report a case of recurrent vulvar condyloma in a sexually abused infant who presented complete resolution of the lesions after the use of topical imiquimod. Methods: Data research and medical record review were performed in addition to a qualitative study consisted of a wide literature appreciation on the subject. Results: After undergoing extensive therapy, the patient was successfully treated using topical imiquimod. Conclusion: Observation of this particular case suggests that imiquimod may be a safe and effective therapeutic alternative for the treatment of condyloma in the pediatric population. However, theoretical foundations for such conduct are scarce. Thus, the need for further studies on the subject is reinforced.


Introdução: As verrugas anogenitais constituem uma das principais manifestações clínicas da infecção pelo vírus do Papiloma Humano (HPV). Relatos de casos em crianças têm crescido nas últimas décadas; contudo, ainda há dificuldades em determinar a epidemiologia do vírus e definir a melhor terapêutica para essa faixa etária. Objetivo: Relatar um caso de condiloma vulvar recorrente em uma lactente abusada sexualmente que apresentou resolução completa das lesões após o uso de imiquimode tópico. Métodos: Foi realizado levantamento de dados e revisão de prontuário, além de estudo qualitativo composto por apreciação ampla da literatura acerca do tema em questão. Resultados: Depois de ser submetido à extensa terapêutica, a paciente foi tratada com sucesso utilizando imiquimode tópico. Conclusão: A observação desse caso específico sugere que o imiquimode pode ser uma alternativa terapêutica segura e eficaz para o tratamento de condiloma na população pediátrica. Entretanto, embasamentos teóricos para tal conduta são escassos. Assim, reforça-se a necessidade do desenvolvimento de mais estudos sobre a temática.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Giant condylomata acuminata, also known as Buschke-Lowenstein tumor is a rare form of tumor of the anogenital condylomata acuminata, which is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Objective: To report a case of giant condylomata acuminata in an immunocompetent patient. Case report: The patient was referred to the Outpatient Clinic for Sexually Transmitted Infections and AIDS at a public hospital in the city of Vitória, Espírito Santo State, Brazil, reporting the onset of progressive growth verrucous lesions on the external genitalia for four months. The patient underwent surgical ablation, and giant condylomata diagnostic confirmation was obtained through histopathology. She was treated with 5% imiquimod cream in routine applications for eight consecutive weeks to avoid recurrence and was also vaccinated for HPV after the procedure. Conclusion: Surgery excision is the treatment of choice in extensive genital condylomata lesions to exclude malignancy. Imiquimod use as adjuvant therapy for reducing recurrence seems to be adequate.


Introdução: O condiloma acuminado gigante, também conhecido tumor de Buschke-Lowenstein, é uma apresentação rara do condiloma acuminado anogenital, que é uma infecção sexualmente transmissível (IST) causada pelo papilomavírus humano (HPV). Objetivo: Relatar um caso de condiloma acuminado gigante em uma paciente imunocompetente. Relato de caso: A paciente foi encaminhada para o ambulatório de infecções sexualmente transmissíveis e AIDS de um hospital público na cidade de Vitória, Espírito Santo, Brasil, relatando o aparecimento de lesões verrucosas de crescimento progressivo na genitália externa por quatro meses. A paciente foi submetida à exérese cirúrgica e a confirmação diagnóstica de condiloma gigante foi obtida através da histopatologia. Ela foi medicada com imiquimode creme a 5% em aplicações rotineiras por oito semanas consecutivas para evitar recorrências e foi também vacinada contra o HPV após o procedimento. Conclusão: Exérese cirúrgica é o tratamento de escolha em lesões condilomatosas extensas para excluir malignidade. O uso de Imiquimode como terapia adjuvante para redução de recidivas mostrou-se adequado.

ABSTRACT

Abstract: Objective: To determine external genital lesion (EGL) incidence -condyloma and penile intraepithelial neoplasia (PeIN)- and genital HPV-genotype progression to these EGLs. Materials and methods: Participants (healthy males 18-74y from Cuernavaca, Mexico, recruited 2005-2009, n=954) underwent a questionnaire, anogenital examination, and sample collection every six months; including excision biopsy on suspicious EGL with histological confirmation. Linear array assay PCR characterized 37 high/low-risk HPV-DNA types. EGL incidence and cumulative incidence were calculated, the latter with Kaplan-Meier. Results: EGL incidence was 1.84 (95%CI=1.42-2.39) per 100-person-years (py); 2.9% (95%CI=1.9-4.2) 12-month cumulative EGL. Highest EGL incidence was found in men 18-30 years: 1.99 (95%CI=1.22-3.25) per 100py. Seven subjects had PeIN I-III (four with HPV16). HPV11 most commonly progresses to condyloma (6-month cumulative incidence=44.4%, 95%CI=14.3-137.8). Subjects with high-risk sexual behavior had higher EGL incidence. Conclusion: In Mexico, anogenital HPV infection in men is high and can cause condyloma. Estimation of EGL magnitude and associated healthcare costs is necessary to assess the need for male anti-HPV vaccination.


Resumen: Objetivo: Determinar incidencia de lesiones genitales externas (LGE) -condiloma y neoplasia intraepitelial del pene (NIP)- y progresión de genotipos de VPH a LGE. Material y métodos: Se aplicaron cuestionarios, examen anogenital y recolección de muestras cada seis meses a hombres sanos (18-74 años, de Cuernavaca, México, reclutados 2005-2009, n=954) con biopsia y confirmación histológica. Se caracterizaron 37 tipos de ADN-VPH; se calculó incidencia de LGE (cumulativa con Kaplan-Meier). Resultados: Incidencia de LGE=1.84 (IC95%=1.42-2.39) por 100-persona-años (pa); 2.9% (IC95%=1.9-4.2) LGE acumulativa a 12 meses. Mayor incidencia de LGE entre hombres 18-30 años; 1.99 (IC95%=1.22-3.25) por 100pa. Siete sujetos tuvieron NIP I-III. VPH-11 más comúnmente progresa a condiloma (incidencia acumulativa a seis meses=44.4%, IC95%=14.3-137.8). Los sujetos con comportamiento sexual de alto riesgo tuvieron mayor incidencia de LGE. Conclusiones: En México la infección anogenital con VPH es alta y puede causar condiloma. La estimación de magnitud de LGE y los costos sanitarios asociados se necesita para evaluar la necesidad de vacunación contra VPH en hombres.
