The Penis-Biopsy
When there are clearly-visible skin changes at the genitals,
many men resort to denial. The doctor is called in only once
the lesion is already at an advanced stage or starts causing
pain. Besides relatively innocuous causes such as fungal infection
or contact dermatitis, it is well worth checking for pre-cancerous
disease, also for sexually transmissible diseases. A biopsy
is easy to perform and in many cases helps to confirm the
diagnosis.
The attached 
work from
PD Dr. med. D. Schneede Urology Clinic, Grosshadern
Clinic at the LMU Munich gives an overview over the possibilities
of a bioptical clarification of penile skin changes.
