Anal warts are, from an aetiological point of view, a diverse category of lesions including condylomata acuminata, fibroepithelial polyps and seborrhoeic keratosis. Human papillomavirus induced anal warts, in contrast to other types of warts, are contagious and not infrequently sexually transmitted, they therefore need to be accurately identified. A total of 24 anal warts were randomly collected and the histopathological diagnoses based on microscopy, alone or in combination with a sensitive PCR-based human papillomavirus test, were compared using the SHARP Signal system for detection. Three lesions were identified as condyloma acuminatum by morphology alone due to the obvious presence of koiloytotic atypiaDownloads
