Penile premalignant fibroepithelioma of Pinkus.
A 63-year-old man with a premalignant fibroepithelioma of Pinkus on the base of his penis is presented. Penile premalignant fibroepitheliomas have not, to the best of our knowledge, been previously described. Because fibroepithelioma of Pinkus is a morphological variant of a basal cell epithelioma, we believe that clinically benign fibroma-like lesions appearing on the penis should be biopsied to rule out the presence of this premalignant lesion.
