Abstract
We report the case of a 37 years old male patient who developed severe anal condylomata acuminata after high-dose chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Anal warts were particularly disabling, refractory to the treatment and finally imposed diversion colostomy. The role of cellular immunodeficiency observed after high-dose chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation as etiology of anal condylomata is discussed.
