Abstract:
The incidence of giant condyloma acuminata of the penis is extremely rare. Although they are considered clinically malignant, the real possibility of malignant changes from them are controversial even among the investigators but cannot be entirely overlooked. Therefore, attention must be focused on this fact, in our conclusion. Two cases of malignancy of the penis which have apparently been transformed from giant condyloma acuminata of the penis are herein presented with review of related literatures. Case I: Sixty nine year old male patient complained of a fungating mass on the sulcus coronaris of the penis with ulceration and bleeding from the mass. Biopsy confirmed giant condyloma acuminata and subsequently circumcision and electrocoagulation were performed. Pathological specimen taken after 4 months because of the recurrence of the mass on the same region showed squamous cell carcinoma of the penis and amputation of penis was performed. Case II: Sixty eight old male patient complained of a growing mass and pain on glans penis. This patient also underwent circumcision and electrocoagulation according to the biopsy finding of giant condyloma acuminata. But 1 year later with recurrence of the mass on the same region, the pathological finding revealed squamous cell carcinoma of penis.
