Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Urology

Background:

  • Granuloma annulare (GA) is a benign inflammatory skin condition.
  • While typically affecting extremities, GA can manifest in unusual locations.

Observation:

  • This report details a rare case of granuloma annulare (GA) specifically localized to the penile shaft.
  • The clinical presentation mimicked other penile lesions, necessitating further investigation.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of granuloma annulare.
  • The lesion's unique location on the penis highlights the diverse clinical spectrum of GA.

Implications:

  • Penile GA must be included in the differential diagnosis for granulomatous penile lesions.
  • Accurate diagnosis relies on histopathological analysis, guiding appropriate patient management.
