Abstract

A fibroepithelial polyp (FEP) of the penis is a rare benign swelling and often under-recognised lesion that has the potential to become malignant in some cases. The pathogenesis is still unclear, but it is hypothesised to be due to chronic irritation most often associated with condom catheter use or phimosis. We describe a case of an FEP measuring 10 cm in largest diameter developing from the ventral prepuce with a longstanding post-radiation penoscrotal oedema. A 62-year-old male with a history of bladder cancer presented to the emergency department with abdominal distention, vomiting, and obstipation for three days to the emergency department. He had post-radiation penoscrotal edema for the last 10 years and penile tip growth for the last two years. Foley's catheter insertion was done through the urethra after dorsal slit of prepuce, and an incisional biopsy was sent, which was found to be an FEP.
