Primary chondrosarcoma of the penis in a young patient: A case report and review of the literature.

Introduction: Primary chondrosarcoma of the penis is rare. We present a case of primary chondrosarcoma of the penis in a young patient.

Case Presentation: A 35-year-old man presented with a painless mass at the base of his penis for the past 6 months. Incisional biopsy of the lesion revealed a chondrosarcoma. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography of the thorax, abdomen, and pelvis ruled out a primary lesion in the bones and soft tissues. The patient rejected total penectomy and decided to start chemoradiotherapy followed by local tumor resection.

Conclusion: Primary chondrosarcoma of the penis is rare. Interdisciplinary management plays an important role in planning the therapy for rare tumors. A combined chemoradiation therapy can be followed by penis-preserving surgery to improve the quality of life in young patients with proximal penile tumors.
