We have analyzed a set of 27 patients diagnosed of penile cancer who have been treated in our Hospital during the last 17 years (since january 1984 to december 2000). The annual incidence was set in 1.7 patients/100,000 men/year. The average age has been 64 years (range 42-85). Patients delayed medical consulting of their lesions for 15 months (2-120). Histologic analysis found an epidermoid carcinoma in 19 patients, and verrucous carcinoma in 8. The average follow-up has been 48 months (range 2-120). As a conclusion we don't belive necessary prophylactic inguinal lymphadenectomy. Correct followup, for early detection of lymph nodes does not worsen survival and it avoids unnecessary operations with a high rate of morbidity. The prognostic factors in our patients have been the presence of lymph nodes and the degree of local extension. We lack of experience with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. |
