Hemangiopericytoma of the penis (clinical case)

Abstract

Penile tumors are usually presented by squamous cell carcinoma arising from the foreskin epithelium or glans of the penis. Other types of tumors are relatively rare that is why the diagnosis and treatment algorithms of them are understudied. Here we report a case of the surgical treatment of the patient with rare vascular tumor (hemangiopericytoma) arising from the corpora cavernosa of the penis. This is an exceptional site for this rare tumor with absence of previously reported cases in the published literature.
