[Surgical treatment of a perianal giant condyloma acuminata in a HIV patient]. / Tratamiento quirúrgico de un condiloma gigante perianal en una paciente con síndrome de inmunodeficiencia adquirida humana.

Buschke-Löwenstein tumor is a slowly growing neoplasm with high potential of local invasion. We described a 29 year-old female with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome who was surgically treated for a Buschke- Löwenstein tumor with a wide local excision, bilateral gluteal flaps and loop ileostomy. At 12 months follow-up, there was no evidence of recurrence. Despite it does not metastasize, Buschke-Löwenstein tumor has a high recurrence rate and a 50% risk of malignant transformation into squamous cell carcinoma. Surgery is considered the treatment of choice for this disease. Podophyllin, immunotherapy, interferon and radiotherapy are other treatments with a limited therapeutic response.
