ABSTRACT

The penile melanotic macules are one of the less reported entities in the literature. They can be present usually between 15 and 72 years. It is important for the dermatologist to be aware of this entity, since it’s behavior is usually benign, and the clinical characteristics may suggest malignant melanocytic proliferation. We report three cases, in which the diagnosis of melanotic macule of the penis was proposed based on the clinical presentation and was confirmed by histopathological examination; in one of them ruling out genital malignant melanoma.
