Abstract

Hemangioma involving glans penis is extremely rare, usually present in first 2 decade of life as swelling, papule, nodule or due to its complication. Urologists are in dilemma whether to use surgical management in penile hemangioma. We hereby, report a case of concealed hemangioma of glans penis presented with voiding symptoms due to severe phimosis in elderly 71 year old male, diagnosed intra operatively and treated by circumcision with concomitant excision of hemangioma. Post-operative course was uneventful and at 6 months follow up there was no recurrence, no symptom and with excellent cosmetic results. We believe surgical excision should be choice of treatment in such cases.

Keywords: Circumcision, Concealed, Glans, Hemangioma, Phimosis.
