SUMMARY A case of verrucous carcinoma of the penis is presented with a brief review of the problems encountered in therapy. The aetiology and pathology of the tumour are discussed as well as the accepted treatment. The indolent course of this lesion, its low incidence of metastasis, and the characteristic gross and microscopic pattern are emphasised.
