RESUMEN
Describimos un HE de pene en un varón de 64 años. Se trata de un tumor vascular de potencial maligno intermedio entre un hemangioma y un angiosarcoma de muy escasa aparición en esta localización. Su tratamiento comprende la extirpación amplia y la vigilancia una vez descartada la presencia de metástasis o multifocalidad. La histopatología es esencial en el diagnóstico
