Abstract:
Penile cancer is a rare disease. Patients develop symptoms early in the course of the disease for which reason late stages are seldom in western countries. The present case report describes a 64-year-old man with complete erosion of the penis, leaving an ulcer measuring 10 by 15 cm. The case report discusses incidence, symptoms, aetiology and different modalities of treatment and their correlation with survival.
