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 Case report: One case of condylomata acuminata in a 19-year-old adolescent girl with a major complaint of warts around her genitals that felt itchy and gradually getting bigger since 2 weeks ago. Patient was a student and unmarried. History of sexual contact with men with genito-genital without using condoms since 5 months ago. Venereological state : on the vulva and perineal there were multiple vegetations with verucose surfaces with the largest size 0.8 cm x 0.5 cm x 0.1 cm and the smallest size 0.2 cm x 0.2 cm x 0.1 cm. Acetowhite examination result was positive and PCR examination results found positive HPV types 6,11,16 and 18. Discussion: Patients are diagnosed to condylomata acuminata with a history of free sex at an early age. The condylomata acuminata experienced by patients was type 6,11,16 and 18. These types of 16 and 18 HPV are know to cause malignancy in the genital and anogenital region including cervical cancer and anal cancer.

Objective. Endometriotic tissue implants rarely transform to malignant tissue, especially in a patient with a hysterectomy and bilaterally salpingo-oophorectomy. However, several cases with cancer arising from endometriosis after hysterectomy were reported in the literature. Hormone replacement therapy only with estrogen is a crucial risk factor for malignant transformation of persistent endometriotic tissue. Case Report. The present case demonstrates an endometrioid adenocarcinoma arising from persistent endometriosis tissue in a patient who was performed hysterectomy with bilateral salpingectomy 3 years ago. The histopathologic specimens of the previous surgery did not include any malignant tissue. After 3 years, she applied to the hospital with abnormal vaginal bleeding, and her histopathologic examination result found an ulcerated mass at the upper one-third of the vagina that is compatible with endometrioid adenocarcinoma. Conclusion. It is crucial to keep in mind the endometriosis history of the patient, to be able to diagnose cancer arising from endometriosis while evaluating the patient with a hysterectomy.

AbstractThis study aimed to research the understanding and knowledge of cervical cancer, human papilloma virus (HPV), and HPV vaccination, and the acceptance of HPV vaccination, among a population of women in northeastern China. A cross-sectional survey was carried out by questionnaire to investigate knowledge of cervical cancer, HPV, and HPV vaccination. The 230 female participants were native residents of northeastern China, and their ages ranged between 18 and 65 years. Questionnaires were randomly acquired by the respondents from online and paper questionnaire distribution. The questionnaire included questions on three major aspects to record people’s perceptions of cervical cancer, HPV, and vaccines. Of the sample of 230 women surveyed, 80.9% had heard of cervical cancer, but understanding was only 15.7%; 38.3% knew about HPV; 20% knew about HPV vaccine; 39.6% agreed to receive HPV vaccination, and the remainder were mainly concerned about its safety and effectiveness. Data analysis showed that age, family income, and whether there was experience of screening all influenced knowledge of cervical cancer, but this was not statistically significant. The level of education had no obvious effect on the degree of knowledge about cervical cancer; however, with an improvement in education, women’s awareness of HPV vaccine improved significantly (p < 0.05). Women who have received cervical cancer screening had significantly greater knowledge about cervical cancer and HPV than those with no screening (p < 0.05). Women in northeastern China have little knowledge of cervical cancer, HPV, and HPV vaccine, lack disease knowledge, and hold a skeptical attitude about HPV vaccination. Medical institutions are the main channel providing information to these women.

Background: Human papilloma virus is a causative agent of cervical cancer. Hence,vaccination against HPV is an important mode of primary prevention against cervical cancer. Two vaccines against HPV have been approved and recommended for use in India. However the availability of these vaccines is hardly known and seldom utilised even among the medical fraternity.Aims and Objectives: This study aims to find out the awareness about HPV vaccination among medical students of Andhra Medical College, India. Results of this study will help in assessing the need for awareness programs among health care professionals regarding this important public health issue. Materials and Methods: An observational descriptive study was conducted to know the awareness of HPV infection and vaccination among medical students of a government medical college at Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh. A pretested questionnaire was administered to students of final MBBS Part 1 and final MBBS part 2. Results were analyzed in MS excel and the statistical significance of difference in knowledge between males and females was assessed. Results: Overall, the level of awareness reported was 54.5%. Females had slightly better knowledge than males. Students of final year Part 2 had better knowledge the Final year part 1. The most commonly cited source of information was medical education and the most important factor that deterred subjects from receiving/advising HPV vaccination was lack of knowledge. Conclusion: There exists a large gap in knowledge regarding HPV vaccination. Addressing this gap is necessary if we want to decrease the burden of cervical cancer in India. Medical students, health care providers should be sensitized first and then we should reach out to the public.Asian Journal of Medical Sciences Vol.7(4) 2016 64-67

Background: Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is the leading risk factor of cervical cancer. World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended including HPV vaccination in national immunization programs in all countries. Specifically, Jakarta Province has been implementing HPV vaccination since 2016. In this case, several factors influence vaccination coverage. However, there is limited evidence about determinants associated with HPV vaccination. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the factors associated with HPV vaccination among elementary students in Central Jakarta.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted from March until June 2020. The study population involved 167 female students of the 6th level of the elementary school in Central Jakarta. There were eight elementary schools in Kemayoran and Cempaka Putih Sub Districts selected purposively. Primary data was collected employing an online questionnaire, which was fulfilled by respondents (mothers and students). Data were analyzed utilizing statistic software for descriptive and bivariate analysis. For the bivariate analysis, Chi-Square Test was performed.Results: The HPV vaccination coverage was 80.84%. It was also showed that the last education level of the respondents’ father and mother was mainly senior high school (SMA) for 50.3% and 47.9%, respectively. The mothers’ knowledge was mainly in the middle (56.9%), and they had a positive attitude/support (67.1%). There were only 2.4% of the respondents with a family history of cervical cancer. In terms of family economic status, the main part of respondents had low expenditure for 2-3 million IDR (59.3%) a month. Meanwhile, human resources (vaccination providers) and HPV vaccine were 100% available in the vaccination service. Of the respondent, 47.9% of those said that the vaccine price was affordable. Children who had no support to get HPV vaccination from their father, mother, and siblings were 14.4%, 6.6%, and 21.6%, respectively. Besides, children who were not supported by their teachers was 3.6% and not supported by their peers was 23.4%. Meanwhile, father and mother’s supports were significantly associated with HPV vaccination.Conclusions: Factors associated with HPV vaccination were the support from the father and mother.

Verucae or plantar warts is a painful skin condition that demonstrates a high resistance to various treatments. They can be caused by trauma or human papilloma virus. The infection is mostly caused by a breach in the skin. The virus is usually contacted by walking barefoot in community swimming pool areas. The condition is common in sports persons. Our research focused on warts that occur on plantar surface of foot also known as plantar warts. They result in pain with pressure on weight bearing surfaces so walking is difficult and painful. Risk factors include using community showers barefoot, previous history of warts and decreased immune function. Case Report: We present a case report of a female aged 24 years who was clinically diagnosed with plantar wart. She developed recurrent plantar warts. For a year she was treated with pairing and punch excision with no success. Then ultrasound program was initiated with dosage of 0.6 watt /cm2 and increased up to 1 watt/cm2 for 15 min given at 1-week interval for 15 weeks. At the end of 15th week, the plantar wart had completely disappeared.

<p class="abstract">Persistent infection with human papilloma virus (HPV) has been proved beyond doubt to be associated with the development of cervical cancer. One woman dies of cervical cancer every 8 minutes in India. As per estimations for the year 2018, about 96922 new cervical cancer cases are diagnosed annually in India and it ranks as the second most common female cancer in all age groups. But being an infectious cause it is possible to contain its development and transmission. Coupled with this, we have a potent vaccine to fight this infection. A well documented account of positive impact of HPV vaccination has been published in numerous studies around the globe. By 2013, its vaccination had been introduced in about fifty countries around the globe. In India also, recently, two HPV vaccination projects for operational feasibility were launched in Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat. In November 2016, Punjab became the first state in the country to include the vaccine in its universal immunization program. This era belongs to women empowerment and we cannot deny them the opportunity of good health. Hence it’s high time India introduces an effective HPV vaccination program.</p>

ABSTRACTCervical cancer is one of most common diseases among women worldwide. Human papilloma virus (HPV) is known as precursor of cervical cancer. Cervical cancer can be prevented effectively by practicing hpv vaccine. But the coverage of HPV vaccine is remain low. The objection of study was to analyze factors related to HPV vaccine pratice among adult women. This study used case control design with sample size 25 for each group. Sample case was women who took HPV vaccine in IBI Kota Kediri on 2013, while sample control was neighboor from the sample case who didn’t take HPV vaccine. The independent variabels were age, education level, marital status, income level, knowledge, family support, family history of cervical cancer and the dependent variable was HPV vaccine practice. Those variables was analyzed with chi square or Fisher’s exact with significancy level at 95%. The result showed that there were correlation between education level (p = 0.006; c = 0.346), knowledge (p = 0.001; c = 0.464), and family support (p = 0.000; c = 0.516) with HPV vaccination practice. While there were no correlation between age (p = 0.275), marital status (0.490) and income level (p = 0.098) and family history of cervical cancer (p = 1.000) with HPV vaccination practice. Based on data from this study can be concluded that family support and knowledge had average strenght correlation withHPV vaccine practice among adult women. So, the intervention should be focused in increasing knowledge among women and their family about the important of HPV vaccine as a cervical cancer prevention.Keywords: practice, preventive, HPV, vaccine, adult women
