title: [Surgical treatment of penile-scrotal elephantiasis].
abstract: Penoscrotal elephantiasis is a rare disease outside of filariasis endemic regions. The authors report a case of primary penoscrotal elephantiasis treated by complete surgical resection of the pathological tissue and penoscrotal reconstruction, with a good functional and cosmetic result. The complementary investigations indicated and the various treatment options are analysed in the light of a review of the literature.
