Abstract
We studied the role of sclerotherapy in the management of glans penis hemangiomas. Four patients with hemangiomas of the glans penis were treated on an outpatient basis with intralesional injections of 30% hypertonic saline. In all 4 patients the lesions regressed and all were satisfied with the outcome. Intralesional sclerotherapy is a cost-effective modality for the treatment of glans penis hemangiomas, especially in developing countries and at peripheral hospitals where expensive laser equipment may not be available.
