    Abstract

    A group of 74 men who underwent carbon dioxide laser treatment of meatal condylomata were observed for an average of 18 months. The cure rate after 1 treatment of isolated meatal lesions was 78%; the presence of external lesions lowered the rate to 32% and additional external and urethral warts to 25%. Following multiple treatments all but 6 patients were cured; 83% of the recurrences developed within 3 months. One urethral and 6 meatal strictures occurred more than 3 months after treatment; 9 patients had a spraying stream many years after treatment and 2 complained of frequency.
