title: Cutaneous horn of penis.
abstract: Cutaneous horns of the penis are hyperkeratotic lesions of the skin which arise secondary to chronic irritation. Treatment is local excision with removal of a broad base. Examination of the base is important to rule out carcinoma as the underlying cause of the lesion. A case report is presented and the literature reviewed.
