Aggressive angiomyxoma (AA) is a very rare tumour arising from the vulvovaginal mesenchymal tissue. The literature has not reported its co-existence with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS).

The giant condyloma acuminatum, known as the Buschke-Löwenstein tumor (BLT), is an uncommon, slow-growing, cauliflower-like tumor located in the anogenital region. It has a high recurrence rate, is sexually transmitted, and is often linked with immunosuppression. This tumor is commonly associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, making HPV one of the most prevalent sexually transmitted infections affecting the perineal and genital regions.

Perineal verrucous carcinoma is a rare variant of squamous cell carcinoma that is mainly treated with surgical excision. In this case report, we present a 58-year-old man with human immunodeficiency virus who presented with an extraordinarily large perineal mass that was ultimately found to be verrucous carcinoma in association with giant condyloma acuminata. He was treated with a wide local excision followed by staged abdominoperineal resection and fasciocutaneous flap reconstruction.

Article Synopsis
- The Buschke-Löwenstein tumor (BLT) is a rare, exophytic tumor linked to low-risk HPV strains, primarily appearing as a large, cauliflower-like growth in genital areas, which can be locally aggressive and has a notable recurrence rate.
- A 68-year-old patient with multiple health issues presented with a sizable tumor causing erectile dysfunction and urinary problems, which was successfully surgically excised with reconstruction.
- Histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis, and the patient's recovery underscores the importance of early diagnosis and surgical intervention to manage BLT and prevent complications like malignancy and recurrence.

Aggressive angiomyxoma (AAM) is a rare benign tumor that arises from connective tissue, prominently located in the vulva, vagina, perineum, and pelvis and is mainly found in women aged about 20-40 years old. Giant intraabdominal tumors have rarely been described. These tumors develop slowly over time and are often difficult to diagnose due to various clinical findings, especially in the early stages.
