A hybrid penile carcinoma with presence of anterior urethral dysplasia

Verrucous carcinoma of the penis is a rare histopathologic variant of squamous cell carcinoma, accounting for less than 10% of the cases of penile cancer. Histopathologically, the tumor is a well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma showing aggressive local growth but never metastasizes, except of cases of mixed type with usual squamous cell carcinoma (hybrid carcinoma). In this paper, we present a case of hybrid penile carcinoma in a 78-year old man, who was treated with partial penectomy. The condition was accompanied with dysplasia of the anterior urethra.
