Bowen's disease is the in-situ form of squamous cell carcinoma rarely reported in the dark skin type, especially in sub- Saharan Africa. A 51-year-old patient presented with a 7 cm infiltrated plaque in the perianal area, with condylomas on the top of the plaque, evolving for 2 years. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of Perianal Bowen's disease. Surgical excision with a 5 mm margin allowed healing without recurrence, after a follow-up of 2 years. This is first reported case of perianal Bowen's disease in Senegal. Our observation is particular not only because of the rarity but also due to the existence of condylomas on the top of Bowen's disease and the absence of recurrence after 2 years follow despite the size and location.
