While conventional treatment of penile cancer consists of total penile amputation and bilateral lymphadenectomy, recently a more conservative strategy comprising penile-preserving surgery and selective lymphadenectomy has been applied in order to preserve the penis and to minimize unnecessary inguinal lymphadenectomy. A thorough literature survey was performed to see what was already known of t...
متن کاملConservative surgery for the treatment of penile carcinoma

This remarkable statement by John Hunter appears to-have received little attention when it was made. The truth contained in it is now appreciated, and we have learned further that this control by the testicles over the accessory male reproductive system is maintained by means of androgens. The first part of this paper is confined to one example of such control, namely, the relationship between ...
