Abstract

Introduction. Leiomyosarcoma of the penis (LSP) is an extremely rare form of penile tumor. LSP can be divided into two subtypes: deep and superficial. The goal of this manuscript is to present very rear case of LSP. Case outline. On exam, the patient presented with a slowly ?growing penile bump?, for which an initial diagnosis of non-inflamed penile atheroma was given. Further diagnostic workup was omitted. Outpatient excisional biopsy was performed, and the tumor was sent for pathohistological examina-tion (PHE), which revealed LSP. The patient has not received any further treatment. The most recent follow up was 2.5 years after surgery, and the patient continues to do well without any complications. Conclusion. LSP is an extremely rare disease which can be cured if it is diagnosed in its early stage. PHE is necessary for diagnosis of LSP.
