  • Title: Giant condyloma acuminatum of Buschke and Lowenstein: successful surgical treatment.
    Author: Talwar A, Puri N, Singh M.
    Journal: Int J STD AIDS; 2010 Jun; 21(6):446-8. PubMed ID: 20606229.
    Abstract:
    The Buschke-Löwenstein tumour is an extremely rare, slow-growing, locally destructive, cauliflower-like mass, also known as giant condyloma acuminatum. We report a case of a 42-year-old man who presented to the department of surgery with a two-year history of a perineal tumour. The mass was painless initially but had become painful more recently. After histopathological confirmation, the tumour was removed surgically, as it was resistant to medical treatment. There has been considerable debate regarding the exact nature, aetiology and treatment of these lesions.
