Overview
Carcinoma of the penis may be classified according to cell types into several subtypes: squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, lymphoma, and sarcoma.
Classification
Most common malignant penile tumours
Squamous cell carcinoma[1][2][3]
- The most common type of penile cancer is squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
- Warty carcinoma (verruciform) and verrucous carcinoma
- Looks like a genital wart and may have a cauliflower-like appearance
- Usually slow growing, but they gradually enlarge and can spread deeply into surrounding tissue
- Rarely spread to lymph nodes or other parts of the body
- Often associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection
- Basaloid carcinoma
- Uncommon type of squamous cell penile cancer[5]
- Fast growing
- Sarcomatoid carcinoma
- Fast growing
Rare malignant penile tumours
Adenocarcinoma"Penile Cancer: Introduction | Cancer.Net".
- Develops from sweat glands (glandular cells) in the skin of the penis
- Occurs much less often than SCC
- Also called Paget's disease of the penis
Melanoma
- Develops from skin cells called melanocytes
- Usually develops on sun-exposed areas of skin, but sometimes develops on the penis
Basal cell carcinoma
Lymphoma
- A type of cancer that starts in immune cells of the lymphatic system
Sarcoma
- A type of cancer that starts in connective tissues (tissue that surrounds and supports various organs in the body)
- Starts in the connective and supporting tissues of the body
- Tends to be fast growing
- May include AIDS-related Kaposi sarcoma (KS)
