Penile carcinoma - a rare cause of sudden death.
Forensic Science, Medicine, and Pathology 2019 September
Penile carcinoma is an uncommon but potentially mutilating disease with a heterogeneous etiology. We present a case in which a man died due to severe blood loss from an amputated penis. It was initially regarded as a violent death with an external cause. Autopsy found irregular defects with smooth edges in the external genital area and on both sides of the groin, with yellowish-gray callus-like structures and dried blood at the base of where the penis would have been located. Histological examination revealed the presence of squamous cell carcinoma with signs of keratinization. Subsequent investigation, along with information from the autopsy, revealed that the man suffered from penile carcinoma, thus death was attributed to exsanguination from an ulcerated femoral artery in a patient with penile carcinoma.
