Abstract

The authors describe a rare clinical case named penis "paraffinoma" or "lipogranuloma". This problem has been discussed in only 6 scientific reports and articles during the period 1996-2002 [1, 2, 4, 5, 6]. Jh. Jeong et al. (1996) operated 13 patients with penis paraffinoma and concluded that the plastic and reconstructive procedures are safe and without any complications.
