Abstract:
Giant condyloma accuminata or Buschke-Lowenstein tumor is a rare entity characterized by a large verrucous or cauliflower-shaped lesion primarily affecting the anogenital region. It forms part of a disease spectrum between classic condyloma accuminata and squamous cell carcinoma. Classically, it is thought to arise from previous human papilloma virus infection. Surgical management is usually the treatment of choice despite their high rate of soft tissue infiltration and recurrence. We herein describe a case of a 40-year-old male patient with cystic fibrosis diagnosed with giant condyloma accuminata without human papilloma virus or other paradigmatic risk factors that was treated with near-total surgical resection.
