Cut off anything that is rotted, i.e., brown and soft. After that, for insurance, you could wipe down the cleaned up corm with hydrogen peroxide or soak it in a 10% bleach solution for a few minutes to kill any fungi on the surface. Then let it dry out completely. At that point, you can plant it in a really coarse, well draining potting mix, or even straight perlite. Moisten the mix a little, but most importantly, keep it warm. Don't let it get wet, just a bit moist, until you see new root growth. If you don't keep it warm, it won't survive, most likely.
