The penis carcinoma is a neoplasia representing 0.7% of all male neoplasias, with an annual incidence between 1 and 2 cases per 100,000 inhabitants/year. The present study compiles the authors' experience in treating 22 patients presenting this neoplasia in the period between 1977-90. The procedures carried out included local resection, partial amputation, radical penectomy with lymphadenectomy plus radiotherapy, and palliative surgery plus radiotherapy all based on staging made following TNM grading. Therapy complications, follow-up, and survival results are explained. There were 5 occasions of spinocellular carcinoma co-existing with other neoplasias: 1 colon adenocarcinoma, 1 prostate carcinoma, 1 cleaved small cell centrocytic diffuse lymphoma, and 2 skin epithelioma in other sites, and relevant literature was reviewed. A background of psoriasis treated with psoralens plus UV was present in 4 cases, and caution was advised towards genital protection in patients undergoing UV radiations whether for therapeutic, recreational or cosmetic reasons.

Background: Penile cancer is a rare malignancy treated via various surgical techniques guided by disease stage and grade with current guidelines suggesting partial or total penectomy for those with pT2 or greater. We report a case of a patient with pT2 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the penis who underwent circumcision with left partial-glansectomy and resection of preputial mass with good oncological control while providing good urinary and sexual function.
Case Description: An 82-year-old male presented to the clinic due to a mass that doubled in size in an 8-month timeframe.

Background: Inguinal lymph node (LN) dissection (iLND) is mandatory in cN2 penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC). Open iLND (OIL) is often omitted due to the high rate of complications. A minimally invasive approach may reduce morbidity; however, evidence supporting its role to treat bulky nodes is limited.

Objective: To prospectively validate the diagnostic performance of Clino-radio-pathological Risk Scoring System (CRiSS) for prediction of inguinal lymph-node metastasis (ILNM) in squamous cell carcinoma of penis.
Materials And Methods: A prospective observational study of all patients with SCC penis was conducted between January 1, 2021, and December 31, 2023, at our institute. Data regarding all CRiSS parameters and MRI features of >8mm size and presence of necrosis or irregular outline were recorded, and patients were assigned CRiSS scores and groups.

Verrucous carcinoma, a well-differentiated variant of squamous cell carcinoma with low-grade malignancy, is often associated with localized human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and excessive penile foreskin. We report a 45-year-old male who presented with a verrucous plaque on the glans penis for over four months, along with itching. Examination revealed a verrucous, erosive lesion with a cauliflower-like surface, firm texture, and irregular shape, accompanied by pain, bleeding, and a foul odor.
