Abstract

BackgroundIn this study, cases with suspected urethral condylomata acuminata were examined by dermoscopy, in order to explore an effective method for clinical.ObjectiveTo study the application of dermoscopy image analysis technique in clinical diagnosis of urethral condylomata acuminata.MethodsA total of 220 suspected urethral condylomata acuminata were clinically diagnosed first with the naked eyes, and then by using dermoscopy image analysis technique. Afterwards, a comparative analysis was made for the two diagnostic methods.ResultsAmong the 220 suspected urethral condylomata acuminata, there was a higher positive rate by dermoscopy examination than visual observation.Study limitationsDermoscopy examination technique is still restricted by its inapplicability in deep urethral orifice and skin wrinkles, and concordance between different clinicians may also vary.ConclusionDermoscopy image analysis technique features a high sensitivity, quick and accurate diagnosis and is non-invasive, and we recommend its use.
