Resumo: Introduction: Giant condyloma acuminatum belongs to a spectrum of diseases with malignant degeneration. Clinically, it presents asexophytic, fungating masses, sometimes with a cauliflower-like morphology. Case presentation: We present a case of a 32-year-old female patient with a 180x95x80mm exophytic mass of the vulvar regionsuggestive of Buschke-Lowenstein Tumour. Treatment included wide local excision with electrosurgery and CO2 vaporization of recurrentfocal lesions. Histopathological analysis confirmed the expected diagnosis. Surgery went without complications and the patient islesion-free at the 12th month of follow-up. Conclusion: There is a lack of consistent trials regarding optimal treatment of BLT. Surgery, when feasible, remains the mainstay oftreatment. It allows quick lesion size reduction, with fewer side effects and more rapid return to daily living activities, when comparedto other treatment options.

Clinicamente apresentam-se como massas exofíticas, volumosas, com uma morfologia semelhante a couve-flor. Caso Cínico: Apresentamos o caso de uma doente com 32 anos, com uma massa vulvar exofítica com 180*95*80 mm, sugestiva detumor de Buschke-Lowenstein (TBL). O tratamento incluiu ampla excisão local com recurso a electrocirurgia e vaporização com laserCO2 nas lesões focais recorrentes. O exame histopatológico confirmou o diagnóstico sugerido. A cirurgia decorreu sem complicaçõese a paciente encontra-se no 12º mês de follow-up, livre de lesão. Conclusão: Não existem muitos estudos consistentes em relação ao tratamento ideal do TBL. A cirurgia, quando exequível, continua aser o pilar do tratamento. Permite uma rápida redução do tamanho da lesão, com poucos efeitos colaterais e um regresso mais rápidoàs actividades da vida diária, quando comparada com outras opções de tratamento.Ordem dos Médicos2012-11-12info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/x-pdfhttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/298oai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/298Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 25 No. 5 (2012): September-October; 345-347Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 25 N.º 5 (2012): Setembro-Outubro; 345-3471646-07580870-399Xreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPenghttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/298https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/298/91Pinto, Ana RitaGuedes-Martins, LuísMarques, CláudiaCabral, José Manuelinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-12-20T10:56:01Zoai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/298Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:16:27.719782Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
