Major depressive episode secondary to condylomata acuminata.

Psychiatric and psychological morbidity is often associated with skin diseases. Recent research has focused on the epidemiological and clinical aspects of human papillomavirus infection, whereas the psychosocial and emotional factors related to the disease have not been well established. We describe the experience of a 22-year-old male who, after being diagnosed of condyloma acuminata, developed a major depressive disorder. Copyright 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
