Abstract
The Buschke-Löwenstein tumor is a rare disease associated with human papillomavirus infection. The condition manifests with an ulcerative, exophytic tumor localized in the perineal area. Generally considered as non-cancerous, the growth may develop malignant transformation. Our manuscript highlights the importance of early diagnosis with histopathological analysis.
