Abstract

Three cases of Buschke-Loewenstein tumour are reported. The clinical features of the process are described, its therapeutic aspects are outlined, the diagnostic problems involved by its microscopic structure are discussed. The features of the first case were typical of the process. The intermediate form between the Buschke-Loewenstein tumour and squamous cell carcinoma was exemplified by the second case. The small size of the tumour in the third case was compatible with an organ-saving surgical intervention.
