Early cases of BXO can appear similar to those of candidal balanitis or to those of one of the various penile dermatoses, such as vitiligo, scleroderma, or erythroplasia of Queyrat.

The Alps is a mountain range system that is located in Europe and stretches across Austria, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Slovenia France, Germany, Italy, and Switzerland covering a total distance of approximately 750 miles. This mountain range is the highest and the most extensive mountain range in Europe. The Alps contain about 100 peaks that have summits higher than 13 thousand feet. These mountain ranges were created over ten million years ago as the African and the Eurasian tectonic plates collided.
