Cuniculatum carcinoma: HPV 16 positive lesion with an abdominal graft surgical reconstruction.

The cuniculatum carcinoma is a rare, slow-growth, local aggressive subtype of the squamous cell carcinoma, presented as a verrucous lesion with a low metastasis capacity. Its histopathology shows keratin-filled crypts, and its etiology is linked with HPV, especially 11 and 16 subtypes. The treatment of choice is surgical excision, followed by regular monitoring due to the high risk of local recurrence. We report a case of a woman with Cuniculatum carcinoma treated with surgery with perioperative frozen section procedure, graft, and good evolution.
