Penile fibroepithelial polyp. Case report.
OBJECTIVE
To report a new case of penile fibro-epithelial polyp and its treatment.


METHODS
A 39 year-old patient who came to the outpatient clinic due to a warted growth he had noticed on the frenulum of prepuce of his penis which was narrowing the urethral meatus and impairing his voiding.


RESULTS
Total exeresis of the lesion and circumcision were performed. The histopathologic study revealed a fibroepithelial polyp. The patient is asymptomatic and without any recurrence.


CONCLUSIONS
The importance of considering this type of lesion in the differential diagnosis of penis tumors is confirmed because its macroscopic aspect seems like a cancerogenic new formation on this organ.
