Abstract

Preputial cysts represent an uncommon pathology, are benign and can be treated conservatively or surgically, depending on the size of the lesion. They are usually identified at birth or adolescence and are incidental findings. We present the case of a 3-day-old patient with the diagnosis of congenital syphilis. On physical examination, a preputial cyst of +/- 2mm in diameter was identified. The Department of Surgery suggested conservative treatment and outpatient management.
