The antiseptics 4% chlorhexidine gluconate detergent formulation containing 4% isopropyl alcohol (Hibiclens/Hibiscrub) and 0.5% chlorhexidine gluconate in 70% isopropyl alcohol with emollients (Hibistat/Hibisol) efficiently inactivated human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) produced in cell culture within 15 seconds. These antiseptics were completely effective at 1:100 and 1:5 dilutions, respectively. Therefore, use of these products according to the manufacturer's instructions (i.e. undiluted) for routine disinfection of hands following contact with HIV-contaminated materials, as well as immediate disinfection of abrasions or cuts exposed to HIV, should have significant protective effects.

We report a previously undescribed method of removing multiple oral papillomas, which we performed on 5 men with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Patients were brought to the operating room and placed under general anesthesia. In addition, 1% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine was injected under and around the lesions. We then removed the lesions with a Tricut laryngeal blade attached to a handheld powered shaver Postoperatively, patients were sent home on clindamycin, a pain medication, and Peridex. At the 1-week follow-up, patients reported only minimal pain, and their wounds were well healed. We observed no adverse events associated with the shaving procedure. Our method expedites the process of removing multiple oral cavity papillomas while reducing the morbidity generally associated with other procedures.
