Abstract:
In the last years the excision of superficial benign and malignant penile tumors by laser surgery has been well established. Our first experience confirm the excellent cosmetic and functional results after laser surgery. Furthermore a decrease of recurrence rate was found due to laser vaporization of the adjacent tumor area. In spite of tissue damage by histological examination we were able to classify benign and malignant findings.
