Surgery, the mainstay treatment of giant condylomata acuminata, may cause a high cost or scar formation. It is important to explore effective and safe treatment options. Although the external treatment of traditional Chinese medicine treatment of condyloma acuminatum has not been widely used, in our case, the use of traditional Chinese medicine successfully treated a perianal giant condyloma acuminatum patient who also suffered from mixed hemorrhoid and IgA nephropathy meanwhile. The treatment process was simple and the effect obvious. There was no recurrence more than 10 months after treatment finished, and the patients felt safe, comfortable and highly coordinated. The outcome of this case suggests that the traditional Chinese medicine might be considered as a mild and effective option for the treatment of giant condyloma acuminatum.Keywords: giant condylomata acuminata, IgA nephropathy, Chinese medicine, HPV infection
