This case study details a man with penile lichen nitidus and condyloma acuminata. Treatment focused on the condyloma, achieving near disappearance with cryotherapy and podofilox gel over four months.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • A 32-year-old male presented with a decade-long history of asymptomatic penile papules and a single verrucous plaque.
  • The papules were characterized as 1-3 mm shiny lesions on the penile shaft.

Observation:

  • Biopsy of the papules revealed lymphocytes and histiocytes in the papillary dermis, exhibiting a 'ball-in-claw' pattern.
  • Biopsy of the plaque showed acanthotic epidermis with papillomatosis.
  • The patient desired removal of the verrucous plaque, while the papules were asymptomatic.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination confirmed diagnoses of lichen nitidus for the papules and condyloma acuminata for the plaque.
  • Treatment involved cryotherapy and topical podofilox 0.5% gel for the condyloma acuminata.
  • The condyloma acuminata showed near complete resolution over a four-month period.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the successful management of condyloma acuminata in the presence of asymptomatic lichen nitidus.
  • Combined cryotherapy and podofilox gel offer an effective treatment regimen for penile warts.
  • Differentiating between penile dermatoses is crucial for appropriate therapeutic intervention.
