From determinar.ia.br - Determine suas informações
An invasive verrucous squamous cell carcinoma usually arising on the prepuce or glans penis of uncircumcised men, although it may occur elsewhere in the anogenital area. It develops from a slow but uncontrolled proliferation of human papilloma virus-infected genital epithelium and presents clinically as a papillomatous cauliflower-like tumour (giant condyloma acuminatum of Buschke and Löwenstein). It can infiltrate deeply and radical surgery may be required to eradicate it.
