A guide to the diagnosis and treatment of human papillomavirus (HPV)-related diseases from a urological perspective. With a strong emphasis on the clinical aspects of genital HPV infection, it is suitable for urologists and medical practitioners wishing to acquire or expand their knowledge of urologic diseases caused by HPV.

Within a remarkably short period of time it became clear that TT viruses are widely spread globally, infect a large proportion of all human populations studied thus far and represent an extremely heterogeneous group of viruses, now labelled as Anelloviruses. TT virus-like infections have also been noted in various animal species. The classification of this virus group turns out to be difficult, their DNA contains between 2200 and 3800 nucleotides, related so-called TT-mini-viruses and a substantial proportion of intragenomic recombinants further complicate attempts to combine these viruses into a unifying phylogenetic concept. Although studied in many laboratories, the medically most interesting question of their possible pathogenic role in humans remains unanswered until today. It is not unreasonable to suspect that persistence of at least some specific TT virus genotypes may result in some infected individuals in a definable pathogenicity. We believe that this volume provides first hints in support of this view.

Il fuoco di Sant’Antonio è una malattia, certo! Ma quale? Per noi Italiani è sicuramente l’Herpes zoster; ma è sempre stato così? Ebbene, no! Sant’Antonio Abate aveva la fama di taumaturgo e guaritore già in vita; così, quando le sue spoglie arrivarono in Europa dopo l’anno Mille, tutti coloro che soffrivano di malattie dolorose e urenti lo imploravano affinché li guarisse da quel “fuoco” che li tormentava. Ma quali erano queste malattie così dolorose? Le antiche cronache sono spesso troppo succinte o romanzate per orientarci nella diagnosi ma erisipela, sifilide, ergotismo hanno fatto certamente buona compagnia allo zoster. L’ergotismo soprattutto era terrorizzante perché compariva a ondate imprevedibili e, come la peste, colpiva i virtuosi come i viziosi, scardinando l’interpretazione del dolore come conseguenza del peccato. Come se non bastasse, l’ergotismo non solo provocava terribili sofferenze ma spesso anche stati di confusione mentale e di delirio sicuramente attribuibili al demonio. Bisogna aspettare l’età dei Lumi per mandare in soffitta le superstizioni che infestavano la medicina e allora l’ergotismo si rivela essere non più una maledizione ma solo una malattia, un effetto del consumo di pane nero alloiato. Lo studio degli allucinogeni e la scoperta dell’LSD mettono la parola fine all’interpretazione mistico-religiosa di alcune patologie e gettano inaspettatamente nuova luce su quello che fu il segreto meglio custodito dell’Antichità: il culto dei Misteri Eleusini. In questo libro, la storia del fuoco di Sant’Antonio si dipana dai racconti medioevali sino all’odierna virologia e suggerisce che la curiosità e la scienza sono l’unico antidoto contro la superstizione e il mistero.
