Overview
Penile cancer is a rare cancer and its scarcity has made it difficult to dramatically impact the therapeutic approach and treatment related outcomes. Here we review the epidemiology, risk factors, clinical staging and traditional/novel surgical approaches to penile cancer.
KEY WORDS:
penile cancer - penectomy - human papilloma virus - squamous cell carcinoma
