Kaposi's sarcoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis in young patients with penile lesions and no risk factors. A 37-year-old heterosexual man with no other medical history applied presented with a non-itchy and painless penile lesion, for three months. The HIV 1-2 serology was negative via ELISA test. Histopathological analysis of the lesion revealed a tumor composed of atypical spindle cells, below a partially ulcerated surface. There was also an abundance of plasma cells admixed within the neoplastic cells. The patient was diagnosed as HIV-negative, HHV-8 positive Kaposi sarcoma. Although penile Kaposi sarcoma is extremely rare, classical Kaposi sarcoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of penile lesions.
对于无危险因素的阴茎病变年轻患者,鉴别诊断时应考虑卡波西肉瘤。一名37岁无其他病史的异性恋男性,出现无痛无痒的阴茎病变3个月。酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)检测显示HIV 1-2血清学阴性。病变的组织病理学分析显示,在部分溃疡表面下方有一个由非典型梭形细胞组成的肿瘤。肿瘤细胞内还混有大量浆细胞。该患者被诊断为HIV阴性、HHV-8阳性的卡波西肉瘤。尽管阴茎卡波西肉瘤极为罕见,但在阴茎病变的鉴别诊断中应考虑经典型卡波西肉瘤。
