Congenital endodermal sinus tumor of the penis.

Congenitally occurring endodermal sinus tumors are very rare and frequently occur in association with teratomatous growths. The most common location for these tumors in infancy is the gonads. Tumors of the penis are rare in any age group. As far as we know, this tumor has never been reported in the penis. A 17-month-old baby boy was noted to have a pimple-like lesion at the corona of the glans penis. This was stationary and ignored for a year. At this point, the lump began increasing in size. A further delay of 6 months elapsed before a definitive diagnosis was made. This case emphasizes that any nodule in this area in the neonate is ignored with jeopardy.
