Q

Clinical findings penile tumors

A
  • Most common presentation is a skin abnormality or palpable lesion on the penis
  • Majority of cancers arise on the glans, in the coronal sulcus, or on the prepuce as either a mass or ulceration, and they may be associated with a secondary infection
  • Inguinal lymphadenopathy is present in 30-60% of cases at diagnosis
  • Distant metastases are uncommon until late in the disease course, with only 1-10% of cases having distant metastases at presentation

Q

Diagnostics penile tumors-

A
  • For men presenting with a penile lesion suspicious for malignancy or with a penile lesion and associated lymphadenopathy > proceed with an immediate biopsy of the penile lesion (punch,
    incisional, or excisional biopsy techniques)
  • If penile biopsy is positive, evaluation of the regional LNs is indicated (biopsy)
  • Further imaging studies for tumor staging may include penile US/MRI, abdominal and pelvic CT,
    chest X-ray or CT, and bone scan

Q

If a penile infection appears to be more likely (erythema, swelling, discharge)
what to do in this case?

A
  • 4-6 weeks course of antifungals or antibiotics may be indicated, depending on the clinical setting.
  • Lesions that do not resolve after 6 weeks or
    that progress at any time during antibiotic or antifungal therapy should be biopsied

Q

Premalignant lesions of penile tumors

A
  • Several penile lesions are recognized as premalignant or carcinoma in-situ: have the malignant potential and capacity to evolve into frankly invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)
    1. Erythroplasia of Queyrat
    2. Bowen disease
    3. Bowenoid papulosis
    4. Buschke-Löwenstein tumor (giant condyloma acuminatum)

Q

Staging of penile tumors

A

TX Primary tumor cannot be assessed

T0 No evidence of primary tumor

Tis Carcinoma in-situ

T1 Invasion of subepithelial CT

T2 Invasion of one or more corpora (cavernosum or spongiosum)

T3 Invasion of urethra and prostate

T4 Invasion of other adjacent structures

22
Q

which LN involved in penile tumors

A

inguinal nodes
pelvic nodes

23
Q

where does penile tumor metastasis to

A

lung
liver
lymph nodes
bone
brain

24
Q

treatment of penile tumors depend on

A

depends on the
1. stage of the disease
2. and the risk of recurrence;
initial approach most often involves surgery.

25
Q

Local disease with
primary penile tumor < 3 cm treatment

A
  • Limited local excision +/- circumcision (maintain penile length and sexual function while not compromising complete resection of the cancer) or
  • Mohs microsurgery or
  • Penile radiation therapy or
  • Laser ablation or
  • Topical treatment with imiquimod or 5-FU
26
Q

Invasive or bulky
primary penile tumor treatment

A
  • Partial penectomy (if penile length is adequate for voiding and sexual activity, after excision with 2 cm surgical margin) or
  • Radical penectomy with perineal urethrostomy
  • Regional LN dissection in patients with positive node biopsy +/- adjuvant chemotherapy
27
Q

Treatment of Metastatic or
recurrent penile tumor

A
  • Radical penectomy or
  • Palliative chemotherapy
28
Q

1st line chemotherapy for penile tumors

A

cisplatin,
bleomycin,
MTX,
5-FU

(C B M5)

Q

initial treatment approach of penile tumors?

A

surgery!!!
