Approach to Buschke-Löwenstein tumor associated with malignant transformation

Abstract

Buschke-Löwenstein tumor (BLT) or giant condyloma is a verrucous infiltrating lesion, due to a sexually transmitted human papilloma virus. It appears benign histologically. Excision surgery with a broad incision is the preferred treatment. The aim of this paper is to report on a possibility of malignant transformation and treatment in such case.
