Penile Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Verrucous Carcinoma is a rare but well-differentiated variant of penile squamous cell carcinoma. Its clinical presentation is usually that of an exophytic cauliflower-like lesion with a broad-based growth pattern. We herein report the case of a 61-year-old man who presented with a giant verrucous carcinoma occupying the dorsal surface of the penile shaft. The patient underwent penile-sparing surgery, achieving both disease control and organ preservation. We discuss relevant issues, including clinical features, diagnosis, surgical management, and prognosis and we review the rather sparse literature regarding this rare lesion.

<p class="abstract">Verrucous carcinoma is a rare well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma with minimal metastatic potential. Its occurrence in the glottic and subglottic subsets of the larynx is another very rare entity. We highlight a case of an elderly male who was histopathologically diagnosed as verrucous carcinoma of the glottic and subglottic larynx. We shall discuss the clinical presentation, diagnosis, management, prognosis and postoperative follow up of the patient.</p><p class="abstract"> </p>

Penile Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Background: Penile cancer is an aggressive and mutilating disease which deeply affects self-esteem and daily life of the patient. Penile cancer mostly affects the elderly, seen in people in their sixties and seventies. Occurrence in younger age is a need of research of penile neoplasia in young non-circumcised patients. Materials and Method: This is a three-year retrospective study. Data was extracted from the Department of Pathology and Medical Record section of B.P. Koirala Memorial Cancer Hospital. All histologically proven cases were included. The objective of this study was to assess clinical histopathological profile of penile carcinoma. Results. A total of 114 malignant cases were included out of which most common age group involved was 50-60 years with mean age of presentation being 51.6 years. Glans was the commonest site of involvement in 59 cases (51.7%). Well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma was the most common type (71%). Forty nine patients (43%) presented when the mass size was 4-6 cm and 44 (39%) came with 2-4cm and rest less than 2 cm. Lymphvascular invasion was seen in 15 (13%) out of 114 cases and perineural invasion was seen only in 5 (4.3%) cases. 20 cases (17.5%) had lymphnodes positive which are less than 5 lymphnode positive and five (4.3%) had more than 5 lymphnodes positive. Conclusion. Early diagnosis and intervention of the patient ensure high probability of getting cured because the stage at presentation appears to be the most vital prognostic indicator for survival.

Verrucous carcinoma is a rare variant of well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. It usually occurs in the oral cavity, genital area, and sole. Verrucous carcinoma of the sole, also called epithelioma cuniculatum, often presents a diagnostic challenge both clinically and histopathologically. The authors report such a case that mimics infected epidermal cyst and gout clinically

Missed Diagnosis

Blastomycosis is a relatively uncommon fungal disease that most commonly affects the lungs. Other organs may be involved, usually secondary to dissemination of the organism. Laryngeal blastomycosis may occur in isolation from active pulmonary disease. The signs, symptoms, clinical features, and pathological findings of laryngeal blastomycosis mimic those of squamous cell carcinoma. Misdiagnosis may result in inappropriate treatment with potential morbidity. Proper understanding of the clinical presentation and familiarity with the histopathologic features of this disease are therefore imperative. In this paper, we report 2 cases of laryngeal blastomycosis, 1 of which was misdiagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma, clinically and microscopically, with consequent radiotherapy and laryngectomy. In the other case, a clinical diagnosis of glottic squamous cell carcinoma was rendered. However, blastomycosis was identified in a biopsy specimen. We also review cases of isolated laryngeal blastomycosis that have been reported in the English-language literature during the last 80 years. a number of those cases were misdiagnosed clinically and microscopically as squamous cell carcinoma.

Well Differentiated

Primary urethral carcinomas are uncommon, with urothelial carcinoma as the most common subtype. Urethral diverticulum is also rarely seen in men. A 44-year-old male presented with voiding symptoms. Abdominoperineal resection, prostatectomy, bladder neck excision, and proximal urethral excision were performed. A pathological examination revealed a well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) located inside an urethral diverticulum. We report this unusual case because primary SCC of the male urethral diverticulum is extremely rare. To our knowledge, our patient is only the second reported case.
