Human Papillomavirus and Ano-genital Diseases

Human Papillomaviruses (HPV) are responsible of a wide spectrum of diseases, from warts to carcinoma. The incidence of HPV infection is increasing during time. We are used to consider the disease as a “female matter”; however, once the burden of disease is carefully observed in men, a few considerations concerning screening and prophylactic approaches to male subjects may be wise.
