Introduction :
Melanoma is a malignant tumor developed from melanocytes. Melanoma
represents 1% to 3% of all cancers and is the most common and severe
skin tumor. It’s the leading cause of death from skin cancer. Generally,
malignant melanoma is observed in areas of the skin exposed
intermittently and intensely to sunlight and UV radiation [1].
Primary melanomas of the male genital tract are very rare and represent
less than 1% of all malignant melanomas; they are associated with high
mortality and often late diagnosis [2].
We report the observation of a patient followed for metastatic melanoma
of the penis. And through this observation, we will illustrate the
epidemiological, clinical, and therapeutic characteristics of malignant
melanoma of the penis.
