From 1978 to 1987, 93 new patients with condyloma acuminata visited urological clinic of our hospital. Among them, 16 patients (17%) were teenagers. The number of teenage patients increased gradually year after year as the total number of patients increased. The proportion of females in teenagers was slightly higher than that in adults. Condyloma in male teenage patients frequently occurred around the cornal sulcus. The site of condyloma in female teenage patients were labia minora and anus. None of other sexually transmitted diseases except for urethritis accompanied condyloma. All patients underwent electrocautery. None of teenage patients showed recurrence of condyloma in contrast with relative high recurrence rate (19%) in adult patients.
