[Treatment of genital condylomatous diseases with electric fulguration and interferon].

The therapeutical effectiveness of beta-interferon and the possibility of reducing the incidence of relapses were evaluated by submitting two groups of 10 patients each to various treatment. The first group has been treated only by electro-fulguration and the second also by parenteral administration of beta-interferon. We obtained 60% of relapse (good result in 4 cases) in the first group and 20% (good result in 8 cases) in the second group. No side effects have been reported by patients treated by interferon. We conclude that systemic beta-interferon can be active in treating patients with condylomata acuminata in association with electro-fulguration.
