Epidermoid cyst of the penis: a case report and review of the literature.

Penile cysts are uncommon. A case of a 7-year-old boy with an epidermoid cyst of the penis is reported. He had an asymptomatic, slowly growing soft mass in the frenulum of the penis. Excision of the mass was performed, and the diagnosis was epidermoid cyst of the penis. No recurrence has been noted within the year since excision. To our knowledge, there have been no previous reports of malignancy developing in cystic disease of the penis. In such cases, clinicians should attempt more appropriate management, involving either watchful observation or complete excision of the cyst, by considering the embryogenesis and nature of the disease.
