Penile cancer is a rare but serious urological cancer that requires early diagnosis and specialized surgical management. Timely treatment significantly improves outcomes and survival.
Dr Manmeet Singh, Director of Urology, Robotics & Kidney Transplant at Medanta Hospital Lucknow, provides comprehensive evaluation and surgical management for penile cancer using internationally accepted treatment protocols.
Penile cancer occurs when malignant cells develop in the tissues of the penis. The most common type is squamous cell carcinoma, which usually begins in the skin or foreskin.
Penile cancer staging depends on tumor size, depth of invasion and lymph node involvement. Early-stage cancers are more likely to be cured with surgery.
Removal of the tumor while preserving as much of the penis as possible. Suitable for early-stage localized tumors.
Complete removal of the penis when tumor is extensive. Reconstruction and urinary diversion planning are discussed pre-operatively.
Removal of involved groin lymph nodes if cancer has spread.
Used in advanced stages or when lymph nodes are involved.
Whenever feasible, organ-preserving techniques are preferred to maintain function and quality of life while ensuring complete cancer removal.
When diagnosed early, penile cancer has favorable outcomes. Delayed treatment increases risk of lymph node spread.
Any persistent penile lesion, ulcer or abnormal growth should be evaluated immediately. Early intervention offers the best chance of cure.
