Penile cаncer is а rаre carcinоma that typically affects оlder men. The mean age at diagnоsis is age 60. Risk factors for developing penile cancer include a history of genital warts, penile tear or injury, chronic penile rash, phimosis, or urethral stricture. Physical examination may reveal an ulcerative lesion or a mass on the glans, coronal sulcus, or the prepuce. The mass or ulcer is typically painless and is associated with inguinal adenopathy that either represents an inflammatory reaction or malignant infiltration. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is identified in approximately 30–50% of all penile cancers, and HIV infection is also a risk factor for developing the disease. Tobacco exposure may increase the risk of penile cancer by inhibiting the function of antigen-presenting Langerhans cells. Tobacco exposure has been shown to have a synergistic effect in increasing the risk of developing penile cancer when combined with other risk factors such as HPV infection. Squamous cell carcinoma accounts for most cases of penile cancer. Diagnosis is confirmed through a biopsy of the lesion. Patients with a high risk of recurrence after local resection should be treated with penile amputation. Patients with a low risk of recurrence may be candidates for local excision and organ-preserving therapies.
