[Verrucous carcinoma of the penis. 2 cases and review of the literature].

The Authors report general experience with two cases of penis verrucous carcinoma. Such a neoplasia, slowly evolving and not infiltrating the surrounding tissues, needs deep biopsies for a correct diagnosis. Surgical excision of the tumor is the choice treatment at an early stage: at an advanced stage demolitive therapy consisting in a partial or total penectomy is necessary. Recent findings of frank malignant squamous cell carcinoma arising in verrucous carcinoma raise serious concerns on the use of conservative therapies.
