Abstract
Buschke-Lowenstein Tumour (BLT) also known as Giant condyloma acuminatum (GCA) is a slow-growing, large, cauliflower-like tumor located in the anogenital region. This tumor has a locally destructive behavior, a high recurrence rate and occasional transformation to squamous cell carcinoma. Risk factors include anoreceptive intercourse, HIV and immunosuppression. There is no general agreement on the choice of treatment for this tumor. Wide radical excision seems to be the best treatment, while adjuvant therapies, such as radiotherapy and immunotherapy, may achieve good results, but their effectiveness is still uncertain. We are presenting this case for its rarity, which had a typical GCA in the perianal region along with multiple small condylomas. Such a multiple presentation is extremely rare with very few cases reported in the literature.
