OBJECTIVE: To assess the accuracy of clinical diagnoses and the true incidence of lichen sclerosus (LS) in patients with phimosis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The 92 adult male patients who were qualified for circumcision due to phimosis, were included in the study. The patients were diagnosed clinically by a urologist and dermatologist before the surgical procedure. After the circumcision, the resected foreskins were examined by 2 independent uropathologists.
RESULTS: Preoperative clinical diagnosis of LS was established in 54 patients (58.7%); healthy-looking skin in 26 (28.3%) and other penile diseases in 12 (13.1%) patients. After histopathological examination, the diagnosis of LS was established in 62 patients (67.4%), but only in 44 patients with previous LS clinical diagnosis. LS was histopathologically confirmed in 18 other patients with clinically diagnosed healthy skin (n = 17) or lichen planus (n = 1). Healthy skin was histopathologically confirmed in 10 cases in patients diagnosed clinically before as LS. Other 15 histopathological diagnoses were Zoon balanitis (n = 3), nonspecific balanitis (n = 5), lichen planus (n = 1), psoriasis (n = 1), invasive penile cancer (n = 3), Bowen's disease (n = 1), penile intraepithelial neoplasia 2 usual type (n = 1).
CONCLUSION: LS has been revealed as the most common histopathological diagnosis in patients undergoing circumcision in our study. Histopathological examination seems to be necessary to exclude this disease.
