Abstract
URBINA ALVAREZ, Claudia; CORIMANYA PAREDES, Jorge; AQUINO CABRERA, Noemí and PAZ CARRILLO, Edith. Buschke-Löwenstein tumor in a girl. A case report. Rev. peru. ginecol. obstet. [online]. 2021, vol.67, n.2, 00008. ISSN 2304-5132. http://dx.doi.org/10.31403/rpgo.v67i2322.
Buschke-Löwenstein tumor is a benign giant condyloma acuminatum, whose clinical lesions are larger than 10 cm, so the treatment of choice should always be surgical. We present the case of a one-year-old girl with giant condyloma of the vulva, a rapidly evolving Buschke-Löwenstein tumor, who underwent successful surgical resection. The literature was reviewed regarding its diagnosis and treatment.
Keywords : Vulvar neoplasms; Buschke-Löwenstein tumor.
