Popis: Condyloma acuminata is the most common anorectal lesion in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Surgical treatment can be challenging in cases where the size and extension into the anal canal make individual excision impossible. These patients require large resections and reconstruction using grafts or local flaps. Six patients were treated for giant perianal condylomas between 1999 and 2001. Four patients were HIV–positive, and were selected for surgical intervention after achieving a T4 count >350 and low viral replication. In 5 cases, the lesions were circularly resected up to the pectinate line and the defect was reconstructed using a bilateral V–Y plasty. In the remaining case, fulguration was possible on one side and a unilateral V–Y plasty was performed. There were no infections or healing delays in this series, and the functional and aesthetic results are satisfactory. V–Y plasties are a valid method for perianal reconstruction after resection of giant anal condyloma, with good results in selected patients with HIV infection.
