Giant Condyloma Acuminatum of Buscke-Löwenstein: Successful Treatment With Surgery

Abstract

Giant condyloma acuminatum is a rare sexually transmitted disease which primarily affects genital and perianal areas. Human papilloma virus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted disorder in young, sexually active populations in the USA and Europe. Giant condyloma acuminatum is a uniqe variant of condyloma acuminata, characterized by local aggressive behaviour despite benign histology. It carries a substantial risk of squamous cell carcinoma. Various treatments have been used, but response is often poor and recurrence rates high. We present a case of giant condyloma acuminata succesfully treated with surgical excision.
