“…type of squamous cell carcinoma. Based on our cases and a review of related literature (Dawson et al 1965, Friedberg & Serlin 1963, Greenberg & Wallace 1963, Job & Riedel 1964, Kraus & Perez-Meas 1966, Mosavy & Tayebi 1975, Oranje et al 1976, Riedel 1966, Shrinivasan & Desikan 1971, Spratt & Lee 1977 we conclude that a preceding chronic infection is an important factor in the pathogenesis of these tumors. The histological materials previously diagnosed by other pathologists were reviewed.…”

Five different cases of verrucous proliferative lesions of skin are described and discussed. One of each developed in a chronic ulcer on a heel, in a scar on a lower leg, and on the penis, and two appeared in the region of the buttock in relation to chronic inflammatory sinuses. All these lesions showed morphological and clinical features of verrucous carcinoma which are described. It has been concluded that the variously named verrucous lesions in the literature (epithelioma cuniculatum, florid papillomatosis, giant cutaneous papilloma and papillomatosis cutis carcinoides), as well as our five cases represent a verrucous carcinoma which is a particular type of squamous cell carcinoma. This tumor develops typically in moist areas which are frequently sites of chronic inflammation. Despite the favorable prognosis, it is a potentially invasive tumor.

“…Chronic persistent penile lesions in which the clinical diagnosis is generally straightforward include genital warts, balanitis xerotiea obliterans, and most lesions of squamous cell carcinoma. The initial lesions of squamous cell carcinoma are usually histologically well differentiated, and may be at first vegetating rather than ulcerative, thus occasionally resembling condyloma acuminatum [8]. Inguinal lymph node metastases are present in about half the eases on initial presentation [9].…”

Objective: Report of two cases of exudative discoid and lichenoid dermatosis (Sulzbcrgcr-Garbc) with typical penile lesions. Differential diagnosis of persistent penile plaques. Background: Following remission of the generalized eruption of exudative discoid and lichenoid dermatosis (Sulzberger-Garbe), it is not unusual to see a single remaining lesion localized on the penis. Since Sulzberger et al. (Sulzbcrger MB, Witten VH, Hunt JA. Puzzling persistent penile plaques. Arch Dcrmatol 1956;73:101-109) reviewed dermatoses presenting with puzzling persistent penile plaques in 1955, further dermatoses have evolved as important differential diagnoses. Much controversy has arisen as to the justification of exudative discoid and lichenoid dermatosis (Sulzberger-Garbe) as a disease entity. Conclusions: Diagnosis of most cases of persistent plaques of dermatitis on the penis is possible with a careful examination of the entire skin, and a thorough history to discover past lesions. The possibility of malignancy makes a biopsy mandatory. Exudative discoid and lichenoid chronic dermatosis {Sulzberger-Garbe) typically responds well to systemic steroids. Intralesional triamcinolone acetonide has been demonstrated to be effective in the treatment of a persistent penile plaque in exudative discoid and lichenoid dermatosis (Sulzberger-Garbe), and may be helpful in discontinuing or reducing systemic therapy to a levei compatible with long-term treatment.SSDI 0926-9959(94)00041-W 412 "F.very practitioner undoubtedly has been consulted on more than one occasion by a patient presenting with a rather persistent plaque of dermatitis on the j^lans penis. To the patient, such a lesion is a source of considerable worr\' and concern. The lay person is inclined to think primarily of two possible causes for his penile lesion -rcnereal disease and cancer. With the physician rests the obligation of establishing the diagnosis, instituting appropriate therapy, and reassuring the patient. " M.B. Sulzberger, V.H. Witlen and J.A. Hunt. 1955 [l]

“…The lesion is generally found to be benign, although malignant transformations are known to occur (Machacek and Weakley, 1960;Siegel, 1962). In elderly patients, a number of biopsies may have to be taken to determine the true nature of the lesion (Oranje et al, 1976). Podophyllin, although a useful topical remedy for ordinarycondyloma acuminata, has repeatedlyproved valueless for treating Buschke-Lowenstein's tumour (Machacek and Weakley, 1960;Dawson et al, 1965;Knoblich and Failing, 1967;MacCarron and Carlton, 1970;Netto et al, 1976).…”

“…The clinical resemblance to epidermoid carcinoma is striking, and conversely a true carcinoma has at times been mistaken for condyloma on inadequate histopathological examination (Oranje et al, 1976). The lesion generally presents on the penis, although the anorectum, perineum, and rarely the oral mucosa, abdominal wall, or the thigh may be involved (Knoblich and Failing, 1967;Oriel, 1971;Powell, 1972;Bedi et al, 1975).…”
