Abstract
This is the only common benign tumour of the vagina: it is often multiple and invariably associated with vulval and cervical lesions of similar type.The condylomata are usually small but occasionally attain a size sufficient to obstruct the vagina.Vaginal condylomata are histologically identical to those occurring in the vulva (see Chapter 4).Flat condylomata also occur in the vagina (Figure 6.1).
