[Oleogranuloma of the penis]

Based on literature data and personal clinical experience with twenty patients presenting sex organ oleogranuloma, summed up inferences are reached about the choice of a rational therapeutic approach. The conservative treatment in both acute and chronic stage of the disease proves ineffective. Operative treatment is the basic one, and is aimed at radical removal of the granulation tissue and injected lipid material deposits. The resulting skin defect may be covered using diverse procedures, briefly outlined in the paper.
