Abstract

Oral condyloma acuminatum (OCA) is a less prevalent subtype of condyloma acuminatum and is challenging to treat. We reported two cases of OCA successfully treated with 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT). After three treatments spaced one week apart, both cases were completely cured without significant adverse reactions and were followed up for one year with no recurrence.

Keywords: 5-Aminolevulinic acid; Condyloma acuminatum; Oral condyloma acuminatum; Photodynamic therapy.
