The conundrum of the giant condyloma: is it carcinoma?

Abstract

Perineal verrucous carcinoma is a rare variant of squamous cell carcinoma that is mainly treated with surgical excision. In this case report, we present a 58-year-old man with human immunodeficiency virus who presented with an extraordinarily large perineal mass that was ultimately found to be verrucous carcinoma in association with giant condyloma acuminata. He was treated with a wide local excision followed by staged abdominoperineal resection and fasciocutaneous flap reconstruction. In the post-operative course, the patient developed relatively short interval recurrence which was successfully managed with salvage radiotherapy. He is now post-radiation without evidence of recurrence.
