Abstract
A 22-year-old circumcised white man presented with asymptomatic 1 mm. papular lesions on the penis 11 days in duration. The lesions were arranged around the dorsal surface of the distal penile shaft. Biopsy was performed. Paraffin embedded sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin. On microscopy benign hyperplastic sebaceous glands were composed of multiple mature lobules that coalesced centrally (see figure). Cases of sebaceous gland hyperplasia from an 8-year period were reviewed for comparison. This review revealed 206 previous patients with sebaceous gland hyperplasia, mostly facial involvement, of whom the majority (198) were elderly (mean age 61.2 years).
