Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Oncology
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Microinvasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a recognized premalignant lesion primarily associated with cervical cancer.
  • It has also been documented in other anatomical locations, including the oral cavity, larynx, and vulva.

Observation:

  • This report details an exceptionally rare instance of microinvasive SCC arising in a chronic erythematous lesion on the glans penis.
  • The patient presented with extensive metastatic disease.

Findings:

  • Microinvasive SCC of the penis is exceedingly uncommon.
  • The development of microinvasive SCC in a long-standing penile lesion can lead to widespread metastasis.

Implications:

  • Highlights the critical need for increased awareness among patients and urologists regarding premalignant penile lesions.
