The incidence of penile cancer has been reported to be around 0.005 % in males, with less than 5% of then being sarcomas among all types of penile malignancies Primary penile sarcoma is a rare disease that affects men of all ages. Different subtypes of primary penile sarcoma exist, with the rarest being pleomorphic sarcoma. Only few cases have been reported on pleomorphic sarcoma of penis with undifferentiated type being most commonly reported. No report on high grade pleomorphic sarcoma has been previously reported in the English literature. We report an extremely rare case of undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma of the penis in a 62-year-old patient who initially presented with a recurrent or residual penile lesion. The tumor was surgically excised, but the patient experienced local recurrence and died of metastatic disease 18 months after initial presentation.
