Summary: The occurrence of genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection was studied prospectively by colposcopy and histology in 43 virginal and 162 sexually active women attending a colposcopy clinic. The study also included 111 husbands of the latter group. By colposcopic criteria, the prevalence of HPV infection was 51.1% in the virginal and 69.1% in the sexually active women. The prevalence was 77.1% among men whose wives had HPV infection compared to 13.3% among men whose wives did not…

The Absence of Genital Human Papillomavirus DNA in Virginal Women
TLDR
It is concluded that HPV infection prior to sexual intercourse, as determined by tampons specimens, is rare, even in those participating in other forms of sexual activity.
Human Papillomavirus History and Epidemiology
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a significant source of morbidity and mortality among the young population and, together with HIV, is considered the most costly sexually transmitted disease…
Non-sexual HPV transmission and role of vaccination for a better future (Review).
TLDR
Promoting greater understanding in the general public about the evident benefits of vaccination can create positive vaccine attitudes and scatter the myths of spurious side effects.
Human papilloma viruses infection among adolescent females perinatally infected with HIV in Côte d’Ivoire
TLDR
The reported low prevalence of carcinogenic HPV infections supports the appropriateness of HPV immunisation in this population of HIV-infected adolescent females and the reported association between cleansing practices and HPV infection deserves further prospective longitudinal studies.
Human Papillomavirus and External Genital Lesions
TLDR
This chapter discusses the management of subclinical infection and clinical disease, including novel ­therapeutic options for HPV-related external genital lesions, as well as preventive measures against the disease.

Perceptions of Anal HPV Infection by HIV-Positive Men Practicing Male-to-Male Sex
TLDR
Findings revealed that the study population of HIV-positive MSM had a basic understanding of HPV but knew little about the transmission of HPV or about the availability and cost of HPV vaccines.
Transmission of Human Papillomaviruses from Mother to Child
TLDR
Contamination of a child's mouth with ‘genital’ HPV from a mother's cervix appears to occur commonly at birth or in the perinatal period, and to persist for at least 6 weeks.
Detection of human papillomavirus DNA on the fingers of patients with genital warts.
TLDR
This study has identified hand carriage of genital HPV types in patients with genital warts and raises the possibility of transmission by finger-genital contact.

Human Papillomaviruses in Women With a History of Abnormal Papanicolaou Smears and in Their Male Partners
TLDR
The vagina and vestibule were found to be frequent sites of human papillomavirus infection with the same virus type as in the cervix, and progression to carcinoma in situ (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia III) was correlated with initial isolation ofhuman papillmavirus 16/18.
High prevalence of papillomavirus-associated penile intraepithelial neoplasia in sexual partners of women with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.
TLDR
The concept that cervical carcinomas and precancerous lesions in women may be associated with genital papillomavirus infection in their male sexual partners is supported.
Detection of human papillomavirus type 6/11 DNA in conjunctival papillomas by in situ hybridization with radioactive probes.
Colposcopy is Superior to Cytology for the Detection of Early Genital Human Papillomavirus Infection
TLDR
It is concluded that colposcopy is far more sensitive than cytology for the detection of cervical and vaginal human papillomavirus infection.
INCREASED RISK OF CERVICAL NEOPLASIA IN CONSORTS OF MEN WITH PENILE CONDYLOMATA ACUMINATA
Characterization of human papilloma virus types in condylomata acuminata in children by in situ hybridization.
TLDR
It is concluded that most condylomata acuminata in children are associated with the same types found in anogenital lesions in adults, which may prove to be important as a prognostic tool particularly in patients infected with HPV types 16 and 18, thought to have high oncogenic potential.
Human papillomavirus DNA associated with foreskins of normal newborns.
TLDR
It is suggested that neonates exhibit evidence of a relatively high incidence of exposure to HPV, and the outcome of exposure may be initially asymptomatic.

TLDR
The early history of the disease has recently been reviewed by Bafverstedt (1967), who pointed out that some of the early synonyms for the lesions, particularly the words 'fig' and 'condyloma', have survived into modern times.
Condyloma acuminata in children.
TLDR
Because of the possibility that children with condyloma acuminata have been sexually abused, a thorough medical and social evaluation is essential.
Increasing occurrence of condylomata acuminata in premenarchal children.
TLDR
Clinicians should be aware of the possibility that more children are being exposed to the disease by infected adult family members when treating adults with condylomata acuminata, and when examining children referred to them because of perineal lesions.
