Abstract
ObjectiveTo explore human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and genotype distribution in male patients with condyloma acuminatum (CA).
MethodsTotally 332 male patients with CA were enrolled from March 2015 to September 2017 at Henan Provincial People′s Hospital. By means of flow-through hybridization after polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the wart tissue HPV DNA genotypes were detected by gene chip. χ2test was used to perform statistical analysis.
ResultsAmong 332 male CA patients, 239 was positive for HPV with the positive rate of 71.99% (95%CI: 67.16%-76.82%). A total of 37 kinds of genotypes, except for genotypes 26, 45, 69, 70, the others were all detected. The positive rate of genotype 6 was the highest in all detected genotypes (39.46%, 95%CI: 34.20%-44.72%) and the second one was genotype 11 (22.59%, 95%CI: 18.09%-27.09%), and the difference was significant (χ2=22.070, P<0.05). Among 239 HPV-positive CA patients, 158 were single infection and 139 were low-risk genotype (low-risk vs hight risk genotype: χ2=182.3, P<0.05), and 81 were multiple infection and 55 were mixed genotype (mixed vs low-risk genotype: χ2=32.241, P<0.05; mixed vs high-risk genotype: χ2=60.201, P<0.05). The CA patients mainly distributed in those aged 20 to 29 years, followed by those aged 30 to 39 years.
ConclusionsThe genotypes of HPV infection in male patients with CA are mainly low-risk genotypes 6 and 11. Single infection is common, and the age of patients mainly distributes among 20 to 29 years old.
