Incidentally detected cavernous hemangioma of the glans penis after circumcision: A case report.

Rationale: Hemangiomas of the glans penis are very rare. Treatment options include surgical excision, laser therapy, intralesional sclerotherapy, electrofulguration, and cryotherapy. However, there have been no definitive treatment guidelines established to date.

Patient Concerns: A 19-year-old man presented with a mass on the glans penis, incidentally found during a circumcision performed at a local urology clinic 3 months before visiting our department.

Diagnoses: Histopathological examination identified the specimen as a cavernous hemangioma.

Interventions: The mass was completely excised and the resulting wound was closed layer by layer.

Outcomes: The patient was discharged without complications, such as wound dehiscence or infection. Follow-up 14 months after surgery showed that the wound was well healed without recurrence and the patient was satisfied with the aesthetic result.

Lessons: Although there are many options to treat hemangiomas occurring on the glans penis, surgical excision can be considered when they are small in size.
