Penile Granular Hemangioma Treated With Intralesional Sclerotherapy
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Hemangiomas are benign vascular lesions occurring in all parts of the body but are rarely found in the glans penis. Treatment options available for these lesions are sclerotherapy, cryotherapy, laser fulguration and surgical excision. But due to the rarity of these lesions there is no best consensus for treatment. We are reporting a rare case of hemangioma of glans penis in a 28 year old boy successfully treated with intralesional sclerotherapy using 2 ml of 3% sodium tetradecyl sulfate. Lesion resolved after 8 weeks of sclerotherapy and there was no recurrence in 6 months of follow up.
