Abstract:
Verrucous carcinoma, a tumor that encompasses approximately 5% of all penile neoformations, is a variant of squamous cell carcinoma which is benign and has a peculiar histological behaviour. We report on three patients aged 57, 80 and 84 years with this tumor type who underwent surgery (circumcision in one case and partial penectomy in the remaining two cases). The literature is briefly reviewed and the epidemiological, clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects are discussed.
