Sumario:BACKGROUND: Giant condyloma acuminatum (GCA) is an uncommon condition affecting the anogenital area. CASE SUMMARY: Here, we report an 88-year-old male patient who presented with a 5-year history of a progressive appearance of multiple cauliflower-like warts over his penile shaft, pubis region, and groin as well as urine leakage along the distal penile shaft. Physical examination revealed an ulcerative skin perforation with pus discharge under the distal prepuce base, which was initially suspected to be a urethral fistula. However, during surgery, it was discovered that the perforation was caused by a giant condyloma lesion that had obliterated the prepuce opening, with infection and high pressure causing subsequent skin perforation. He underwent circumcision and wide excision with electrocauterization of the warts. He was discharged after the surgery, and the residual lesion was treated with imiquimod and low-dose oral tegafur-uracil. CONCLUSION: Penile GCA can cause prepuce perforation and can be postoperatively treated with imiquimod and low-dose oral tegafur-uracil.
