Verrucous carcinoma includes approximately 5% of all neoplasias of the penis and is a tumoral variety of benign behaviour and differentiated histology. Our 10-case experience of penial verrucous carcinoma is reported here. In nearly all cases, partial penectomy was the definitive approach. No dissemination, locorregional or distant, was found in any of the report cases. Since prognosis of these tumours is good, we see no justification in performing lymphadenectomy, although it is advisable to adopt and expectant attitude when faced to inguinal adenopathies.
