  • Title: Squamous cell carcinoma and lichen sclerosus et atrophicus of the prepuce.
    Author: Campus GV, Alia F, Bosincu L.
    Journal: Plast Reconstr Surg; 1992 May; 89(5):962-4. PubMed ID: 1561268.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of squamous cell carcinoma of the prepuce arising on balanitis xerotica obliterans are described. This event is unusual and not well known. The surgical treatment was a wide circumcision in which the prepuce and part of the shaft skin were removed, performing as well a decortication of the glans base. This technique seemed to be satisfactory in removing the carcinoma and obtaining a definite improvement in the clinical picture of balanitis xerotica obliterans as well.
