Background: Verrucous carcinoma is a slow-growing tumor with 3 main localizations: Oral cavity, ano-urogenital region, and plantar surface of the foot. On the sole it may rise adjacent to viral warts and very often is mistaken for the common verruca plantaris. Although both conditions-viral warts and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma-are often diagnosed in immunosuppressed patients, in literature we have found only 3 case reports of verrucous carcinoma in organ transplant recipients.
Case report: We present a case of 26-year-old man after deceased donor renal transplantation with plantar verrucous carcinoma successfully treated with excision and 5% imiquimod.
