Abstract

The condylomata acuminata or genital warts are produced by the human papillomavirus. Infection typically occurs when host basal cells are exposed to viral infection through a damaged epithelial barrier, such as during sexual intercourse or as a product of other minor skin abrasions. In few occasions they can evolve with a marked growth and cause the well-known Buschke-Löwenstein syndrome or Giant Condiloma Acuminado. We present a patient with Giant Condyloma Accumulated in the inguinal and anal regions that was surgically treated with exeresis of the inguinal lesions and electrofulguration of the annals with satisfactory evolution, without tumor recurrence at three months.
