Abstract
Prognosis of penile LMS is difficult to ascertain because reported cases are rare. Penile leiomyosarcoma can be classified as superficial or deep based on tumor relation to tunica albuginea. Deep tumors (> 3 cm), high-grade lesions, and tumors with involvement of corpora cavernosa, tend to spread locally and metastasize to distant areas and require more radical surgery with or without postoperative radiation therapy. In contrast, superficial lesions can be treated with local excision only.
