A RARE LESION OF GLANS PENIS: LYMPHANGIOMA
Abstract
Lymphangiomas of the urinary tract are rare lesions and those of the penis are even rarer. Herein we report a case of cutaneous lymphangioma of glans penis in a 35-year-old man and its surgical treatment. Preoperative MRI imaging defined the mass on the glans as hemangioma but the histopathologic examination revealed cutaneous lymphangioma of glans penis. The lesion was successfully treated surgically.
Key Words: Penis, Lymphangioma,
