Condyloma acuminatum in the anterior pillar due to oro-genital relations

It is the variety of wart which is most common in the oral mucosa.  It presents as a vegetation occurring as a sole or multiple lesion, due to dissemination of a papova group virus.  The shape may vary considerably, it can have an ample sessile or pedunculated implantation base, rosy in color, sometimes with an opaline tint, of irregular surface, and which may present multiple prolongations.  When located on the palate or the dorsum of the tongue, the vegetations on the surface start to disappear and acquire a smooth aspect, due to compression.  Condyloma acuminatum or venereal wart, as it is also known, may appear simultaneously in the genital area.
