ABSTRACT
Verrucous carcinoma of the penis is a rare invasive carcinoma that originates from squamous epithelial cells. It comprises 5 to 24 percent of all penile malignancies and 5 to 16 percent of all squamous cell carcinoma. In 5 % of cases, it is associated with human papilloma virus (HPV). We describe a case of a 42 year old male, with a I year history of a slowly enlarging verrucous mass which initially presented as a warty papule on the penile shaft.
