The Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted disease worldwide. Most commonly, HPV causes condyloma acuminata (genital warts).
However, HPV also can lead to Cervical cancer. This is the reason why women should get regular pap smears. HPV is also associated with cancers of the vulva (the area surrounding the vaginal opening), vagina, penis, anus, and head and neck.
A rare condition caused by HPV is recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). Basically, one gets recurrent warts in the throat, which can lead to problems breathing. This disease form is thought to result when a mother with HPV passes the virus to her baby during delivery.
