Angiomatous lesions of glans penis

Two patients with an angiomatous lesion of the glans penis are presented. These lesions are rare and difficult to distinguish from the spongiosum tissue. There is much controversy concerning their true nature, i.e., whether they represent a true neoplasm, herniation of the corpus spongiosum, or vascularization of a hematoma or thrombus. The present lesions were not true neoplasms, but are best described as malformative lesions.
