“…Characterized by an epidermotrophic effect, and epithelial overgrowth, HPV can be transmitted via several pathways: sexual contact, autoinoculation, or contact with infected materials. Its incubation period usually lasts 2 to 3 months, but can last for up to 20 months [2,8,9].…”

“…Hay muy pocos casos de TBL en la infancia descritos en la literatura, es por ello que no existe un tratamiento estandarizado en caso de aparición 6 . Aunque su histología es benigna y no produce metástasis a distancia, tiende a infi ltrar y destruir tejidos adyacentes de la región genitoanal, y hasta en un 40% de los casos puede evolucionar hacia un carcinoma verrucoso.…”

Temporary colostomy before surgery in Buschke-Löwenteim tumour in childrenBuschke-Löwentein tumor is a verrucous lesion, with slow growth and locally infi ltrating. Despite her benign histology, is an intermediate lesion between condiloma acuminatum and verrucous carcinoma. It has been linked to human papilloma virus (subtypes 6 and 11). Other factors implicated include poor hygiene, chronic irritation, promiscuity and cellular inmunocompromised states. It is exceptional in children. We report a case of a 6-year-old girl with HIV infection B3 and giant condyloma that affect genitoanal region and rectal mucosa. The temporary colostomy aimed good results of the surgical excision.Key words: Buschke-Löwentein tumor, colostomy, human papilloma virus, inmunocompromised. ResumenEl tumor de Buschke-Löwentein es una lesión verrucosa, con crecimiento lento, y localmente infi ltrante. A pesar de su histología benigna, se trata de una lesión intermedia entre el condiloma acuminado y el carcinoma verrucoso. Su aparición está ligada con el virus del papiloma humano (subtipos 6 y 11). Otros factores que intervienen son la baja higiene, promiscuidad, irritación crónica y la inmunosupresión celular. Es excepcional su aparición en niños. La exéresis quirúrgica radical es el tratamiento de elección. La realización de una colostomía de descarga previa, permite el aislamiento, facilitando la cicatrización de la zona y evitando el contacto con material fecal que contribuye a la recidiva. Presentamos un caso de una niña de 6 años con VIH estadio B3 y condilomatosis gigante que afectaba a la región genitoanal y a la mucosa rectal adyacente. La colostomía temporal contribuyó al éxito tras la resección quirúrgica.Palabras clave: Tumor de Buschke-Löwentein, colostomía, virus del papiloma humano, inmunodeficiencia.

Context: The lesion of condyloma acuminata, popularly known as venereal warts is a sexually transmitted disease generally diagnosed based on their appearance. Giant condyloma acuminata also named Buschke-Löwenstein tumour (BLT) is a slow growing cauliflower-like tumour, locally aggressive and destructive, with possible malignant transformation. The mode of treatment range from application of podophyllin to surgical excision by cauterisation.Case report: A case of unusual presentation of giant condyloma in a 26 year old, single, nulliparous, HIV positive woman is presented and the literature reviewed. She had an18 month's history of rapidly progressive growth of vulval tumour and associated itching, contact bleeding, malodorous vaginal discharge and difficulty in walking. She had previously been treated with podophyllin without success. The tumour measured 40 x 30 cm and was successfully excised with no evidence of malignancy. Conclusion:BLT is still seen in low resource countries like Nigeria, due to late presentation. Wide excision with histological margins examination is the best surgical choice in the treatment of BLT as it was performed in our patient. Small condylomas must be very carefully treated, including with surgical excision, in order to prevent further developing of BLT. Unusual Presentation of Giant
