Abstract
Condylomata acuminatum is a sexually transmitted infectious disease caused by human papiloma virus on the skin. The transmission is mainly by close contact with infected person and autoinoculation. In oral cavity the condition manifests as soft pink nodules which proliferate and coalesce rapidly to form diffuse papillomatous clusters of varying size. Odontogenic myxoma is a rare tumor of jaws which occurs in the tooth-bearing areas of the mandible and maxilla. It is an uncommon, benign, but locally aggressive neoplasm. This case report highlights a 17-year-old girl with two lesions in oral cavity with soft tissue growth on the palate which has been diagnosed as Condyloma Acuminatum, treated by surgical excision and a large swelling on the right side of the mandible in the same patient diagnosed as odontogenic myxoma where marginal resection was performed.

Abstract
AIMS We studied the clinicopathological features of 11 condyloma and condyloma-like lesions of the oral cavity with an unusual mixed pattern of exophytic and intraductal growth. The latter manifest as involvement of minor salivary gland ducts by the proliferative squamous lesions. This pattern of ductal involvement has not been previously described in oral condyloma. METHODS AND RESULTS The clinical history was available for nine patients ranging in age from 17 to 73 years. Two were female and seven male. The buccal mucosa (five cases) was the most common site of occurrence, followed by the floor of mouth (two cases), lingual frenum (two cases), and hard palate (one case). All lesions exhibited exophytic and intraductal growth. The latter manifested itself as extension of the lesions into the excretory ducts of minor salivary glands. Underlying minor salivary glands, present in many of the excisional biopsy specimens, typically showed changes of obstructive atrophy. The exophytic components of all cases exhibited some degree of parakeratosis, and cryptic invaginations of parakeratin were typically present. Koilocytes were present in seven lesions and were equivocal in four. Mucous cells were present in the intraductal component of all cases and the intraductal component was never keratinized, but often papillary. A mild stromal-based, lymphocytic host response was present in three. A variably prominent neutrophilic infiltrate was present in the exophytic component of eight. Dysplasia was not present in any case. Five of 11 cases were positive with anti-human papillomavirus (HPV) and two of 11 cases were positive for in-situ hybridization probes directed against HPV 6/11. All cases were negative for HPV 16/18 and 13/33/35. CONCLUSIONS Oral condyloma acuminatum may involve the excretory ducts of minor salivary glands. The diagnosis of oral condyloma acuminatum is difficult, as these lesions share considerable histological overlap with squamous papilloma. Finally, the relationship between these two lesions is incompletely understood.

Abstract
In the past 20 years, there has been an increasing interest in human papillomaviruses (HPV) because of their potential role in the pathogenesis of malignant tumors. In 1983, we published the first evidence that HPV might be involved in oral squamous cell carcinomas. The identification of morphological similarities between oral and cervical mucosa lead us to this original proposal. In a recent meta-analysis, HPV was indeed confirmed as an independent risk factor for oral carcinoma. To date, totally more than 100 types of HPV have been identified. As in anogenital cancers, HPV type 16 is the most prevalent type in oral carcinomas. The benign oral lesions, associated with HPV infection, include squamous cell papilloma, condyloma acuminatum, verrucca vulgaris and focal epithelial hyperplasia (FEH). Papillomas and condylomas are mostly caused by HPV type 6 or 11, while oral verrucas are associated with the skin types 2 or 4. A family history of FEH has been suggested. The FEH lesions are caused by HPV types 13 and 32, only detected in oral epithelium. In immunocompromised patients, benign HPV-induced lesions are characterized by atypical morphology and the simultaneous detection of multiple HPV types. Oral benign HPV lesions are mostly asymptomatic, and may persist or regress spontaneously.

Abstract
The incidence of certain microbial infections occurring in the oropharynx is well documented, but infection by other pathogens, although highly probable, has not been established with certainty. Considerable recent interest in the incubation period of various infections and improved community surveillance programs combine to ascribe infection to specific incidents. It is prudent for health care personnel to acknowledge the presence of many sexually transmitted diseases in the oropharynx and consider them in the differential diagnosis of many well-established conditions.

Abstract
More than 65 distinct types of human papillomavirus (HPV) have been identified to date. Several of the HPV types have been proposed as etiologic agents of squamous cell carcinoma. In the oral cavity, HPVs have been found associated with several benign squamous cell proliferations. Evidence from histology and DNA hybridization studies suggests that HPV is also involved in oral carcinogenesis. It is apparent, however, that substantial amount of confusion exists in the diagnosis of oral HPV infections. The keratotic, papillary lesions in the oral cavity are usually small and easily overlooked. The gross appearance of these viral lesions is not distinct enough to be readily diagnosed by the clinicians. Degenerative changes found on oral mucosa frequently simulate koilocytosis. Thus, caution should be exercised to avoid overdiagnosis of HPV infection in the oral cavity. The present review summarizes the current evidence available on HPV infections in general and on oral HPV infections in particular. The diagnostic techniques available as well as the problems encountered in the distinction of these lesions are also discussed in short.

Abstract
Focal dermal hypoplasia syndrome (FDH) is a congenital disorder of mesodermal derivation with some ectodermal participation. The disorder, first described in 1962, is characterized by tenacious defects consisting of thinning of the skin; herniations of adipose tissue; abnormal skin pigmentation and other skeletal, dental, ocular, hair, and nail abnormalities. A rare instance of focal dermal hypoplasia syndrome is reported as characterized by papillary gingival hyperplasia. Differential diagnostic guidelines that separate focal dermal hypoplasia from a host of other skin and mucous membrane disorders are discussed along with therapeutic modalities and the possible relationship of human papillomavirus to focal dermal hypoplasia syndrome.

Abstract
Seventy-seven tissue samples from patients with either degree I, II, or III smokeless tobacco keratoses were examined. The tissues were evaluated for the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) antigen by immunocytochemical staining. Capsid antigen could be identified in sixteen cases (20.78%). This investigation further supports the concept that smokeless tobacco-associated leukoplakias can be correlated with HPV infection.

Abstract
The incidence of oral condylomata acuminata and simultaneous genital condylomata is not known. A review of the literature implies that the disease is rare, but it is more likely that it is only rarely reported. As the virus is autoinoculable and transmissible, the etiologic factor in this case of oral condylomata acuminatum is most likely orogenital contact. This case report serves as a reminder also that oroanogenital contact expands the anatomic range of sexually transmitted diseases.

Abstract
Condyloma acuminatum, CA or genital warts, are benign fibro-epithelial tumors with a predilection for moist environments, especially mucosal surfaces. This sexually transmitted disease (STD) is increasing rapidly in incidence. The lesions are associated with a number of human papillomavirus (HPV) types. Some HPV types are closely linked with genital (especially cervical) dysplasia and neoplasia. Treatment consists of such traditional modalities as podophyllin, cryotherapy or surgical excision and, more recently, administration of interferon (IFN).

Abstract
The in situ DNA hybridization technique, carried out under stringent conditions, was used to detect human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA of types 6, 11, and 16 in paraffin sections of 32 surgically treated oral mucosal lesions. Expression of HPV structural proteins was analyzed by means of the immunoperoxidase (IP-PAP) method. A total of 10 (31.3%) of the 32 lesions proved to express HPV antigens, which were found in 4 of 7 squamous cell papillomas, in 2 of 2 classic condylomas, in 2 of 10 papillary hyperplasias, and in 2 of 3 leukoplakia lesions. Two of the squamous cell papillomas contained HPV 6 DNA, and 4 additional lesions were positive for HPV 11 DNA. In one of the condylomas, a double infection by HPV 6 and 11 was found, while the second was positive for HPV 11 alone. Both the HPV antigen-positive papillary hyperplasias contained HPV 6 DNA, as did the HPV antigen-positive leukoplakia lesions. Of the latter, one was infected by HPV 6 and 11. DNA of the "high-risk" HPV 16 was contained in two lesions: one lichen planus lesion and one of the two squamous cell carcinomas. The results confirm the previously reported evidence of HPV involvement in oral mucosal lesions. The implications of these findings are discussed in terms of the well-established premalignant character of oral leukoplakia and oral lichen planus, although far less commonly versus leukoplakia, with special emphasis on the discovery of the "high-risk" HPV 16 in the latter as well as in oral cancer.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Up to 6% of oral leukoplakia, a relatively common mucosal disease, can be expected to become malignant. This report describes a long-term study of 30 patients in whom a particular form of leukoplakia was identified and labeled proliferative verrucous leukoplakia (PVL), a disease of unknown origin, which exhibits a strong tendency to develop areas of carcinoma. PVL begins as a simple hyperkeratosis but tends to spread and become multifocal. PVL is slow-growing, persistent, and irreversible, and in time areas become exophytic, wartlike, and apparently resistant to all forms of therapy as recurrence is the rule. The disease was most commonly seen in elderly women and had been present for many years. Patients were followed for 1 to 20 years. Thirteen died of or with their disease, 14 were alive with PVL, and 3 were alive without PVL at last contact. PVL rarely regressed despite therapy. All patients who died had persistent or recurrent disease. PVL appears to constitute a continuum of hyperkeratotic disease, ranging from a simple hyperkeratosis at one end to invasive squamous cell carcinoma at the other. Microscopic findings are dependent upon the stage of the disease's development and the location and adequacy of the biopsy.

Abstract
This article describes an approach to the evaluation and treatment of condyloma acuminatum (anogenital warts) that is based on the results of new clinical research on the biology of the human papillomavirus. A more extensive diagnostic protocol, including routine cervicovaginal examination and Papanicolaou smear, is proposed for female patients because of the close association of genital human papillomavirus infections with cervical carcinoma. Two highly effective therapies, cryosurgery and carbon dioxide laser photocoagulation, are described and compared with older regimens. Recent developments in immunotherapy for resistant condyloma acuminatum are also discussed.

Abstract
Papillomaviruses are ubiquitous DNA viruses that are epitheliotropic and produce a range of epithelial neoplasms, both benign and malignant, in animals and man. Human papillomaviruses are associated with a variety of rare and uncommon oral lesions, and there has been increasing suspicion that they may be implicated also in some premalignant and malignant oral lesions.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is an agent responsible for squamous cell tumors (verrucae, condylomata and papillomas) at various sites of the body, the oral cavity included. Due to the recently pointed-out association between these HPV lesions and the squamous cell dysplasias and malignancies in the uterine cervix, in the bronchus and in the larynx, the present work was carried out to assess, whether morphological signs (cytopathic effects of HPV) or HPV antigens could be found in lesions of oral squamous cell carcinomas. Biopsies from 40 cases of oral squamous cell carcinomas were surveyed by light microscopy with special emphasis on the presence of the histopathological features suggesting an HPV lesion, i.e. whether flat, inverted or papillomatous condylomas are present concomitantly with the malignancy. All specimens were also subjected to immunoperoxidase staining with anti-HPV serum to disclose the possible HPV antigens in the lesions. Morphological signs of the flat-type HPV lesion were found in 4 cases (10%), those of an inverted type in 3 cases (7.5%), and those of a papillomatous type in 9 cases (22.5%). Epithelial cells (mostly koilocytes) showing HPV-positive nuclei were disclosed in 5 papillomatous lesions, in 2 inverted lesions and in 1 flat lesion. The results suggest that HPV might be the agent involved in the development of at least certain special types of oral squamous cell carcinomas; albeit further confirmatory evidence with other techniques (DNA hybridization) is still needed.

Abstract
Six oral squamous cell tumours classified as focal epithelial hyperplasia (FEH), Condyloma acuminatum (CA) and squamous cell papilloma (SQP) were subjected to indirect immunoperoxidase staining with anti-human papillomavirus (anti-HPV) antiserum to demonstrate the possible presence of HPV antigens in these lesions. The results are discussed in the light of the observations on HPV-lesions elsewhere in the body (in uterine cervix), and a suggestion is made to adopt the name condyloma for all those tumours where HPV aetiology can be established by ultrastructural or immunohistochemical means.
