Abstract
Giant condyloma (Buschke-Loewenstein tumour) is a
rare disease that commonly affects the urogenital area. We
encountered an eighteen year old, nonhomosexual, HIV negative,
male, who presented with a cauliflower like warty
mass around perianal region. The mass was 8×6 cm in
size, circumferential, soft and papillary in nature. Wide
excision of mass was carried out with anoplasty
reconstruction. Post-operatively, wound healing was
uneventful. After wound healing, the topical applications
of five percent imiquimod were done regularly under the
care of dermatologist for three months. At six months of
follow-up, patient is free from tumour, and is having neither
signs of anal stenosis nor incontinence.
