Abstract:
Warty carcinoma variant of squamous cell carcinoma of the penis is a rare condition, making up 7% to 10% of all penile carcinomas. We present a case of warty carcinoma variant of squamous cell carcinoma of the penis in a 43-year-old Caucasian. The tumor presented in a locally invasive manner, requiring a total penectomy. The primary lesion measured over 15 cm x 16 cm, covering the entire perineum. The clinical features, diagnosis, surgical treatment and pathology are reviewed. In light of the locally invasive nature of warty carcinoma of the penis and high recurrence rate, early diagnosis and aggressive treatment is necessary for this type of unique penile cancer.

Cancers Originate from Somatic Mutations in a Single Cell
Cancer-Critical Genes I: Proto-oncogenes
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
