Abstract

Primary malignant lymphoma of the male external genitalia is extremely rare and it is even rarer in the penis. Because of its rarity, the possibility of delay in diagnosis and mismanagement is always there. It can present as a nodule, non-healing ulcer, stricture urethra or periurethral abscess. We report a case presenting first a nodule and later on as a non-healing ulcer which was diagnosed by corporal biopsy and managed successfully with chemotherapy.
