    Review of erythroplasia of Queyrat and its treatment.

    Abstract

    EQ (erythroplasia of Queyrat) manifests itself by single or multiple asymptomatic papules or plaques on the glans penis, or periurethrally, predominantly in uncircumcised men, age range from twenty to eighty years of age. The bright red lesions may be ulcerated. The disease progresses slowly, and the interval between onset and diagnosis may be years. The cause is unknown. Diagnosis is confirmed only by histologic examination. A therapeutic regimen of 5 per cent 5-fluorouracil cream applied to lesion(s) twice daily for four to five weeks has produced a high cure rate and maintained penile integrity and function.
