Introduction

In the mid 1990 ′s I began seeing more and more men with anal condyloma. Having been trained as a surgeon to always send a specimen for biopsy, I was quite alarmed when I noticed pathology reports returning as not simply condyloma but condyloma with high-grade dysplasia. I probably shrugged off the first few but when they kept coming with increasing frequency I called the pathologist. I guessed I was probably dealing with a phenomenon similar to an adenoma with areas of high-grade dysplasia, but that was not the case at all.
