Abstract

A rare case of mucoid cyst of the penile skin in a 23 year-old man is reported, which has been presented as a movable, superficial and no tender nodule, measuring 0.8 cm in maximum diameter at the periurethral meatus of the glans for 6 months. This nodule was removed by simple excision and proved to be a mucoid cyst of penile skin, which was lined by pseudostratified columnar epithelium with occasional mucous epithelium and glands, suggesting its origin is most likely from sequestrated periurethral glands.
