ABSTRACT

Description of the clinical cases: the cases of two common hematological neoplasms are presented, a diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and a recurrence of acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML), but with an extremely rare initial clinical presentation such as penile involvement. the treatment consisted of chemotherapy, and in the case of LAM also adding radiotherapy, without requiring surgery in its management.
Relevance: a review of the bibliography of the cases published up to date was carried out, finding only 20 published cases of DLBCL of the penis and 5 cases of extramedullary involvement of AML in the penis.
Clinical implications: knowledge of penile lesion due to blood neoplasms is important because they have high response to medical treatment and the possibility of avoiding radical or mutilating interventions.
Conclusions: the biopsy of a penile lesion should be performed in all cases before considering local treatment
