Zoon's balanitis is a rare genital dermatosis of unknown etiology, usually presenting as a red-orange macule or plaque with a «cayenne pepper» appearance on the glans and/or foreskin. Unfortunately, atypical presentations are not uncommon, including vegetating or ulcerative lesions. Usually, it affects middle-age to older uncircumcised men. Although it is a benign pathology, Zoon's balanitis may be superimposed on another inflammatory or neoplastic dermatosis. As topical treatments are generally non satisfactory and relapses are usual on treatment with-drawal, circumcision remains an interesting option with usually a rapid and complete remission of the symptoms.
佐恩龟头炎是一种病因不明的罕见生殖器皮肤病，通常表现为龟头和/或包皮上出现红橙色斑疹或斑块，呈“辣椒粉”外观。不幸的是，非典型表现并不少见，包括赘生性或溃疡性病变。通常，它影响中年至老年未行包皮环切术的男性。虽然它是一种良性病变，但佐恩龟头炎可能叠加在另一种炎性或肿瘤性皮肤病之上。由于局部治疗通常效果不佳，停药后复发常见，包皮环切术仍是一个有吸引力的选择，通常能使症状迅速完全缓解。
