Key Clinical Message Giant condyloma acuminatum is a rare variant of genital warts also known as Buschke‐Löwenstein tumor. It is characterized by a slow progression of exophytic, ulcerative, and cauliflower‐shaped tumor with benign histological features. Verrucous carcinoma however is a rare variant of well‐differentiated squamous cell carcinoma with limited metastatic potential.
