Urologic Applications of Human Papillomavirus Typing Using DNA Probes for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Genital Condyloma
1989
ABSTRACT The use of DNA probes to examine the type of human papillomavirus (HPV) genome found in penile lesions is described both at a technical level and in a clinical application. At least 40 different types of HPV have been identified, and these types vary not only in their DNA base sequences but also in their clinical manifestations. Although DNA probes currently have a role only in a research setting, this article delineates the possible role of this technology in a clinical setting to detect subclinical intraurethral HPV.
