A rare case report of penile schwannoma

Penile neoplasms are rare, and diagnosis of these are challenging. There have been only 27 cases of penile schwannomas (PSs) documented in English medical literature. We report a case of PS. A 36-year-old male patient presented with a penile tumor that had grown steadily over the past year without causing the patient any pain or affecting his sexual aptitude and performance. The dermatological examination and ultrasonographic evaluation yielded inconclusive results. The diagnosis of PS was confirmed through histopathological and immunohistochemical investigation.

Abstract

Penile neoplasms are rare, and diagnosis of these are challenging. There have been only 27 cases of penile schwannomas (PSs) documented in English medical literature. We report a case of PS. A 36-year-old male patient presented with a penile tumor that had grown steadily over the past year without causing the patient any pain or affecting his sexual aptitude and performance. The dermatological examination and ultrasonographic evaluation yielded inconclusive results. The diagnosis of PS was confirmed through histopathological and immunohistochemical investigation.
