RESUMO
@#Complications arising from simple surgical procedures such as circumcision are uncommon. When a person devoid of surgical training performs these procedures, severe problems usually occur. This is a rare case of a 23-year-old, Filipino male with severe penile shaft erosion secondary to chronicpenile strangulation from complications of circumcision. A two-stage procedure was planned for this patient involving removal of the constricting object, debridement and anastomosis of the penile shaft. Postoperatively, there was good penile erectile function and an aesthetically acceptable form.
RESUMO
Sebaceous hyperplasia usually presents as solitary or multiple, small, yellowish papules on the face, particularly on the forehead. It occurs most commonly in middle-aged individuals and rarely in early adult life. It has also been reported in the vulva, penis, and areola. Histological examination reveals a single greatly enlarged sebaceous gland composed of numerous lobules grouped around a centrally located, wide sebaceous duct. We report a case of a 26-year-old man with sebaceous hyperplasia in the ventral surface of the distal penile shaft, an unusual site.

Fordyce's spots are ectopically located sebaceous glands, and these are clinically characterized by multiple pinhead- sized whitish or yellowish papules. Although the condition is not generally considered to be pathological, there are some problematic cases that have significant cosmetic concerns. These spots are usually located at different sites inside the oral cavity, and mainly at the upper lip and buccal mucosa. However, they occasionally occur on the areola, glans penis and labia minor. We herein report on a case of Fordyce's spots on the penile shaft because this condition should be considered in the differential diagnosis of lichen nitidus.
