This is a case report of a 48-year-old man whose penis presented a destructive gland/penile shaft lesion and three adornments in the penile shaft, reported as 'Bouglou'. The diagnosis of penile cancer was confirmed after total penectomy. This study is the first that suggests a possible association between squamous cell carcinoma and these penile adornments.
