Abstract

The article discusses a case of penile melanocytoma in an 18-year-old man, which was diagnosed through clinical examination, dermoscopy, and histopathological evaluation. The lesion was successfully excised with negative results for neoplastic disease in locoregional lymph nodes. Penile melanocytoma is a rare neoplasm with a low degree of malignancy, often affecting young individuals and requiring a multidisciplinary approach for diagnosis and management. Further studies may be needed to explore potential genetic associations and underlying conditions that could contribute to the development of this condition. [Extracted from the article]
