Abstract

Penis carcinoma shows an incidence between 0.3-1% of all male neoplasias. The verruciform variety represents 5-10% of total penis carcinoma. Verruciform carcinoma is a variety of squamous carcinoma presenting a usually benign behaviour and related to some virus species (H.P.V.). Three cases are presented with ages ranging between 47-87 years-old, all of which undergoing partial penectomy, their progression being monitored for two years.
