“…[27][28][29][30][31][32] In all these patients, lesions were multiple and occurred on various regions on the penis shaft, as in our cases. In none of the patients were there any lesions on the scrotum or glans, which is also true for both of our patients.…”

Syringoma exclusively located to the penis is an extraordinary rare dermatological condition, and only 6 patients with syringoma exclusively located to the penis have been published previously. Light microscopical examination of routine hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections from punch biopsies with adequate depth from 2 patients was performed. Classical syringoma was diagnosed. The lesions occurred in an eruptive fashion in both patients on the dorsal and lateral aspects of the penis shaft. There was a variation in clinical appearances ranging from yellow-white papules, a few millimeter in size to, in one of the patients, formation of several slightly elevated plaques, 10 mm in size, with a brownish-red color. We describe clinicopathological features of 2 patients with syringoma exclusively located to the penis. These are compared with all the previously published cases. Clinical and histopathological differential diagnoses are discussed, and a literature review is presented.

“…Because of the delicate skin in the areas that these growths most commonly affect, treatment is difficult. Furthermore, penile syringomas are rare, and there are only a few reports of procedural destruction of these tumors (Table ) . CO 2 laser, electrocoagulation, and surgical excision have all had mixed results in removing syringomas, with several reports of success but also with the risk of recurrence or scarring .…”

Most of these reports present treatment of adults; surgical treatment for syringomas, especially those affecting genitalia, is not often considered for children.…”

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.

Syringomas localized to the penis (case report)

Abstract: Syringomas localized in the genital areas are unusual. There are only three cases reported describing syringomas on the penis. Owing to this atypical localization it is necessary to consider a differential diagnosis involving other papular lesions more frequent found on the penile skin.
