Abstract:
Elderly men are at higher risk of developing genital dermatologic problems, including inflammatory and neoplastic conditions due to age-related physiologic changes, immunosenescence, comorbidities, and iatrogenesis. Clinical manifestations of genital dermatoses in men are varied and may include itching, pain, redness, dermatitis, lumps, and ulcers. Even when asymptomatic, the psychologic impact may be significant. Sexual or urinary dysfunction may complicate genital dermatoses. Early and accurate diagnosis is essential to reduce morbidity and mortality from premalignant and malignant conditions and also to prevent sexual dysfunction and unnecessary anxiety in the case of benign entities.
