“…1 Eruptive syringoma is a rare variant, and the age of onset ranges from 3 to 50 years. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Eruptive syringoma is the term for multiple lesions that occur synchronously in any part of the body. 1,4,13 The term eruptive is not the opposite of localized and refers to the time of onset of the lesion.…”

“…Several cases of penile syringoma have been reported, but eruptive penile syringoma is rare. 3,[5][6][7][8][9][10]12,13 Histopathology is essential for the diagnosis of syringoma. Hematoxylin and eosin stain shows multiple small cystic ducts and epithelial cell nests in the dermis.…”

Eruptive Penile Syringomas in an Adolescent: Novel Approach with Serial Microexcisions and Suture–Adhesive Repair

Penile syringomas are benign adnexal tumors that are usually asymptomatic but can be cosmetically distressing. Because of the delicate nature of skin in this region, treatment is difficult, and there are few case reports of procedural destruction of these tumors. We report a case of successful surgical excision using Castroviejo ophthalmic scissors followed by primary closure with fast-absorbing plain gut suture and a cyanoacrylate adhesive application. This procedure was well tolerated and had an impressive cosmetic outcome.

Penile warts: an update on their evaluation and management

BackgroundPenile warts are the most common sexually transmitted disease in males. Clinicians should be familiar with the proper evaluation and management of this common condition.ObjectiveTo provide an update on the current understanding, evaluation, and management of penile warts.MethodsA PubMed search was completed in Clinical Queries using the key terms ‘penile warts’ and ‘genital warts’. The search strategy included meta-analyses, randomized controlled trials, clinical trials, observational studies, and reviews.ResultsPenile warts are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV), notably HPV-6 and HPV-11. Penile warts typically present as asymptomatic papules or plaques. Lesions may be filiform, exophytic, papillomatous, verrucous, hyperkeratotic, cerebriform, fungating, or cauliflower-like. Approximately one-third of penile warts regress without treatment and the average duration prior to resolution is approximately 9 months. Active treatment is preferable to watchful observation to speed up clearance of the lesions and to assuage fears of transmission and autoinoculation. Patient-administered therapies include podofilox (0.5%) solution or gel, imiquimod 3.75 or 5% cream, and sinecatechins (polypheron E) 15% ointment. Clinician-administered therapies include podophyllin, cryotherapy, bichloroacetic or trichloroacetic acid, oral cimetidine, surgical excision, electrocautery, and carbon dioxide laser therapy. Patients who do not respond to first-line treatments may respond to other therapies or a combination of treatment modalities. Second-line therapies include topical/intralesional/intravenous cidofovir, topical 5-fluorouracil, and topical ingenol mebutate.ConclusionNo single treatment has been shown to be consistently superior to other treatment modalities. The choice of the treatment method should depend on the physician’s comfort level with the various treatment options, the patient’s preference and tolerability of treatment, and the number and severity of lesions. The comparative efficacy, ease of administration, adverse effects, cost, and availability of the treatment modality should also be taken into consideration.
