Penile intraepithelial neoplasia
Diagnosis in short

Penile intraepithelial neoplasia. H&E stain.
Subtypes differentiated PeIN, classic PeIN
LM DDx squamous cell carcinoma of the penis, squamous hyperplasia
IHC p16 +ve (classic PeIN) -ve (dPeIN), p53 -ve (classic PeIN) +ve (dPeIN)
Site penectomy grossing

Associated Dx HPV infection (classic PeIN), lichen sclerosus or BXO (differentiated PeIN)
Prevalence uncommon
Prognosis good
Clin. DDx squamous cell carcinoma of the penis, lichen sclerosis, phimosis

Penile intraepithelial neoplasia, abbreviated PeIN, is the precursor of squamous cell carcinoma of the penis.

It may be abbreviated PIN;[1] however, this can cause confusion with the prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (the presursor of prostate carcinoma).

General

Microscopic

Subclassified based on the role of HPV,[2] as in vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia:

  • Conventional PeIN (cPeIN).
  • Differentiated PeIN (dPeIN).

Classic penile intraepithelial neoplasia

Features:

  • Increased NC ratio.
  • Multinucleation.
  • Lack of maturation to surface - not that useful.
    • May have "vertical streaming" - the long axis of the cells are perpendicular to the free surface & basement membrane.
  • Apical mitoses.

DDx:

Differentiated penile intraepithelial neoplasia

Features:

  • Thickening of the stratum spinosum (acanthosis).
  • Elongation of rete ridges with bridging/anastomoses between rete ridges.
  • Nuclear atypia - esp. of the basal layer.
  • Nuclei in stratum corneum (parakeratosis).
  • +/-Atypical mitoses.

IHC

  • p16 -ve in dPeIN,[3] +ve in cPeIN.
