Abstract
Background: Condylomata acuminata (KA) or better known as genital warts disease is a genital area infectious disease caused by Human papilloma virus (HPV). The highest prevalence infection of the condylomata acuminata occurs during active sexual periods, namely age 17-33 years, with the peak occurring at the age of 20-24 years. Currently HPV 16 and 18 are known to cause malignancy in the genital and anogenital region including cervical cancer and anal cancer, while HPV 6 and 11 are the cause of 90% of condylomata acuminata. HPV is linked to the findings of 500,000 new cases of cervical cancer and 250,000 deaths from cervical cancer each year worldwide.1
