Present Case Study

Disorders in patients who develop squamous cell carcinoma can lead to severe conditions. The present case study evidences the advance of this pathology in a patient who goes to the medical services when the problem has advanced. Objective- To describe the case of a patient who underwent surgery to remove a tumor from the vulvar region to prevent it from triggering in severe states. Method - Surgery of a vulvar tumor, performed on a female patient of 62 years. Result- Squamous cell carcinoma, infiltrative verrucous type, with dimensions of 7x6 cm, with an invasion depth of 2.7 mm in the central region    Conclusion- This type of pathology should not be allowed to worsen when it occurs, as it deteriorates the quality of life of patients over the years. If it is detected and treated early, complications can be avoided. In the present case, the histopathological diagnosis was epidermoid carcinoma. It is expected that the information collected will be useful to professionals and that it contributes as an alert to detect early health problems in patients.

In this case study, we present an unusual case with squamous cell carcinoma surrounding the penis involving foreskin and glans of penis. In addition, multiple satellite nodules were noted in the pubis. A 57-year-old circumcised heterosexual male patient presented with a penile lesion existing for 10 years. At the same time, he was referred to an outpatient memory clinic because of persistent subjective memory complaints associated with depression and anxiety. The patient was operated under general anaesthesia. The lesion was resected circumferentially with macroscopic clearance, resulting in complete degloving of the penile shaft. Neurovascular bundles were preserved. Histopathological analysis of the lesion revealed an invasive and poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma, and the surgical margins were free from tumour. The patient was followed for 18 months. He did not have voiding difficulty. Pelvic tomographic and physical examination findings did not reveal any episode of recurrence or metastasis. Treatment of carcinoma resulted in a simultaneous full recovery of his memory decline and he remained free of depression and anxiety symptoms over time.
