Surgical treatment of perineal giant condylomata acuminata (Buschke Lowenstein tumor): Case series from a developing country.

INTRODUCTION

Giant condylomata acuminatum (GCA) also referred to as Buschke-Lowenstein tumor (BLT) is a rare tumor primarily associated with low-risk HPV 6 and 11, which is believed to be a slow growing intermediate tumor with low potential to transform into invasive cancer.

CASE PRESENTATION: We presented our experience with three cases of BLT (one woman and two men).

CLINICAL DISCUSSION: The three patients had surgical excision and two of them had reconstruction of the surgical defect with good clinical outcome.

CONCLUSION

We highlighted the importance of early identification of symptoms, treatment options and risk of recurrence as well as primary preventive strategies.
