Surgical management of a giant condyloma of Buschke-Löwenstein in a patient with Netherton syndrome using the pedicled anterolateral thigh flap — a case report

SummaryThe surgical management of a giant condyloma of Buschke and Löwenstein poses particular reconstructive challenges, given the wound size, depth, and infection risk. We present a case where a pedicled anterolateral thigh flap is used to reconstruct a complex wound following resection of a giant condyloma of Buschke and Löwenstein arising in a patient with Netherton syndrome. Our operative technique re-iterates the utility of this flap in perineal reconstruction and demonstrates the possibility for an 18 cm wide arc of rotation. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a successful complex excision of a giant condyloma in Netherton syndrome, the subsequent reconstruction, and periodic maintenance with topical therapies.
