Atypical urethral condyloma acuminatum presenting diagnostic challenges in a resource-limited setting: a case report

This case compellingly demonstrates the essential requirement for increased clinical vigilance and diagnostic flexibility in the management of urethral condyloma, especially in resource-constrained settings. It demonstrates that atypical presentations, even without classic risk factors or high-risk human papillomavirus detection, mandate reliance on histopathological confirmation for accurate diagnosis and prognostication. The successful outcome via excisional biopsy underscores its practicality and effectiveness as a primary intervention for such complex cases in resource-constrained environments, offering valuable learning for similar global health contexts.

Abstract

This case compellingly demonstrates the essential requirement for increased clinical vigilance and diagnostic flexibility in the management of urethral condyloma, especially in resource-constrained settings. It demonstrates that atypical presentations, even without classic risk factors or high-risk human papillomavirus detection, mandate reliance on histopathological confirmation for accurate diagnosis and prognostication. The successful outcome via excisional biopsy underscores its practicality and effectiveness as a primary intervention for such complex cases in resource-constrained environments, offering valuable learning for similar global health contexts.
