re genital warts, warning, graphic

[Guest guest]

Rec'v this from a person who cannot post yet, requestng I post it for her. It

is true, from what I understand if it is human pappiloma virus (check the

spelling on that, not sure of the exact way) it has been implicated in

cervical and other kinds of cancer apparently. I am not an expert on this,

and I would encourage anyone who wantz to know more to go to MD.com or one of

the other physician sites and typein genital warts. Here is the lurker's

message to us:

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>from a lurker on grad list: Genital warts if not treated

besides being spread if using unprotected sex can ... turn to cancer. Not to

gross anyone out, but I had a patient, *I work in the operating room* who had

an anal wart that turned into Sarcoma *cancer* the size of a

cauliflower........ And she 4 days later came back to us, and I happened to

be the person in the room, she had a diverting colostomy done, we couldn't

even operate to remove the tumor, it was too big, perhaps chemo and radiation

will help. Only God knows............... please share this >>>>>>>>>>>>

done

love,
