Abstract

The variant of squamous carcinoma of the scrotum known as verrucous carcinoma is very rare, but has a distinct clinical and pathological condition which has a significantly better prognosis than the more common infiltrative type. We report one case of verrucous carcinoma of the scrotum that was treated by wide local excision with placing the bilateral testes subcutaneously in the thigh and a split-thickness skin graft to cover the scrotum. And we tried to detect human Papillomavirus (HPV) type 6, 11, 16 and 18 with DNA in situ hybridization method.
