Their serological test results were noted according to their demographic properties. </p> <p>Results: Of 109 patients whose results obtained, 74 were male and 35 were female patients. Average age of the patients was 33.7 years. There was no positive case of VDRL and anti-HIV, however, HBsAg positivity in a male patient and anti-HCV positivity in a female patient were detected. A total of 28 patients was found to have anti-HBs positivity. While only 17.6% of the female patients were over 40 years old, that number was significantly higher as 36.4% in male patients with condyloma acuminata. </p> <p>Conclusion: Although there is a prediction that condyloma acuminata patients have more incidence of other sexually transmitted diseases, this small retrospective study shows no more coexistence between condyloma acuminata and other sexually transmitted diseases. However, further studies with high number of patients and long-term follow up will provide better conclusions. </p>}, number={1}, publisher={Mustafa HASBAHÇECİ}
