Int Braz J Urol 2022; 48:303-313. [PMID: 35170892 PMCID: PMC8932017 DOI: 10.1590/s1677-5538.ibju.2021.0613] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 01/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose: To determine independent predictors of inguinal lymph node (ILN) metastasis in patients with penile cancer. Patients and methods: We retrospectively analyzed all patients with penile cancer who underwent surgery at our medical center in the last ten years (n=157). Using univariate and multivariate logistic-regression models, we assessed associations with age, medical-history, phimosis, onset-time, number and maximum diameter of involved ILNs measured by imaging, pathological T stage, degree of tumor differentiation and/or cornification, lymphatic vascular infiltration (LVI), nerve infiltration, and ILN metastases. Interaction and stratified analyses were used to assess age, phimosis, onset time, number of ILNs, cornification, and nerve infiltration. Results: A total of 110 patients were included in the study. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the following factors were significantly correlated with ILN metastasis: maximum diameter of enlarged ILNs, T stage, pathological differentiation, and LVI. Among patients with a maximum ILN diameter ≥1.5cm, 50% had lymph node metastasis whereas 30.6% patients with a maximum ILN diameter <1.5cm showed LNM. Among 44 patients with stage Ta/T1, 10 showed ILN metastases, while 47.0% patients with stage T2 showed ILN metastases. Among 40 patients with highly differentiated penile-cancer, eight showed ILN metastasis, while 47.1% patients with low-to-middle differentiation showed ILN metastases. The rate of LNM was 33.3% in the LVI-free group and 64.3% in the LVI group. Conclusion: Our single-center results suggested that maximum ILN diameter, pathological T stage, pathological differentiation, and LVI were independent risk factors for ILN metastases.

Angiolymphatic invasion and absence of koilocytosis predict lymph node metastasis in penile cancer patients and might justify prophylactic lymphadenectomy. Medicine (Baltimore) 2020; 99:e19128.

Abstract
To analyze possible clinical-pathological parameters and predictors of lymph node metastasis and evaluate the impact of lymphadenectomy in the survival of these patients.A retrospective study of patients diagnosed with penile cancer and submitted to regional lymphadenectomy at two reference hospitals in Maranhão, Northeast, Brazil, an area where the disease has a high incidence. We described here clinical and histopathological characteristics of patients diagnosed between January 2009 and September 2017.Fifty-five patients with an average age of 55.4 years (range: 25-84 years) were analyzed, with 24.4 months being the average time between the onset of symptoms and start of treatment. Among patients without palpable lymph nodes at the first examination, 51% were affected by inguinal metastasis. In the multivariate analysis, the presence of angiolymphatic invasion (P = .029) and absence of koilocytosis (P = .001) were found to be predictive factors for lymph node metastasis. Patients submitted to prophylactic lymphadenectomy presented with a disease-free period of 25.4 months (±5.81), whereas those who underwent therapeutic lymphadenectomy presented with a disease-free period of 19.9 months (±3.12).Angiolymphatic invasion and absence of koilocytosis appeared to be predictive factors for lymph node metastasis. Therefore, the submission of patients with metastatic risk to prophylactic lymphadenectomy may improve their survival. Thus, prophylactic lymphadenectomy in patients at risk for inguinal metastasis may create a positive impact in survival rates.

Abstract
Penile squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a rare malignancy with highest incidence in underdeveloped and developing countries. Oncogenic human papilloma virus (HPV) DNA, mainly types 16 and 18, are found in ∼ 100% of patients with uterine cervix carcinoma. The incidence of this virus in SCC and its variations range from 30.5 to 80%. Despite controversies, contrary to the cervical carcinoma, in the carcinogenesis and disease progression of SCC, HPV-dependent and HPV-independent tumors need to be considered. Lymphadenectomies continue to be the gold standard treatment of lymph node metastases. Undesirable accuracy on staging system methods and high rates of lymphadenectomy complications are the principal objections to these surgical procedures; therefore, the main issue in patients with SCC is to know who should or should not undergo lymphadenectomy. The search for primary tumor anatomopathological and biomarker risk factors for lymph node metastases, such as has occurred in other tumors, may be an important tool to select lymphadenectomies candidates better. Histological subtypes, tumor grade, growth pattern, tumor thickness, lymphatic embolization by neoplasic cells and depth of infiltration have been reported as important prognostic factors for lymph node metastases. In our series, lymphatic vascular permeation, palpable lymph node after primary tumor control (cN stage), pattern of invasion, p53 and PCNA immunoreactivity are independent lymph node metastases risk factors in the multivariate model. It is strongly recommended that patients be concentrated in specialized centers or cancer hospitals and multi-centric prospective studies carried out on tumor markers in this rare disease, in order to stage better lymph node disease and avoid unnecessary surgeries with high morbidity rates.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine epidemiological characteristics of penile cancer in Rio de Janeiro, its associated risk factors and clinical manifestations. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 2002 and 2008 we evaluated 230 patients at three public institutions, considering age, ethnicity, birthplace, marital status, educational level, religion, tobacco smoking, presence of phimosis and practice of circumcision. RESULTS The ages ranged from 25 to 98 years, with an average of 58.35 years. Of the 230 patients, 167 (72.7%) were from the southeast region of Brazil (which includes Rio de Janeiro) and 45 (19.5%) were from the northeast of the country. Most patients were white (67.3%), married (58.6%), smokers (56.5%) and had not completed primary school (71.3%). The predominant religion was Catholic (74.8%). Of the 46 (20%) circumcised patients, only 1 (2.2%) had undergone neonatal circumcision. Grade I tumors were present in 87 (37.8%) of the patients, grade II in 131 (56.9%) and grade III in 12 (5.3%). Lymphovascular embolization was observed in 63 (27.3%) and koilocytosis in 124 (53.9%) patients. Of the total, 41.3% had corpora cavernosa or corpus spongiosum infiltration, and 40 (17.4%) had urethral invasion. Prophylactic lymphadenectomy was performed on 56 (36.1%), therapeutic lymphadenectomy on 84 (54.2%) and hygienic lymphadenectomy for advanced disease on 15 (9.7%) patients. The median time between the lesion onset and clinical diagnosis was 13.2 months. The mean follow up was 28.8 months. CONCLUSION Most of our patients were born in this state and had low socioeconomic status. Most of them were white men, married, smokers, uncircumcised, of the Catholic faith and in their sixties or older. Their disease was in most cases diagnosed only in the advanced stages.

Abstract
PURPOSE We evaluated the role of primary tumor histopathological features for predicting regional metastasis and the prognosis in patients with penile squamous cell carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS From April 1996 to January 2007, 202 consecutive patients with penile carcinoma underwent surgical treatment at our institution. Of these patients 196 were studied to identify prognostic factors. All histological specimens were examined by the same pathologist. We considered certain histological parameters, including histological grade, invasion depth, lymphovascular embolization, perineural infiltration, infiltration of the corpus cavernosum or spongiosum, urethral infiltration and koilocytosis. RESULTS Variables significantly associated with regional metastasis on univariate analysis were stage stratification (p = 0.0338), histological grade (p = 0.0112), invasion depth (0.0114), lymphovascular embolization (p <0.0001), perineural infiltration (p = 0.0092), corpora cavernosa infiltration (p = 0.0005) and koilocytosis (p = 0.0013). In the multivariable model lymphovascular embolization and absent koilocytosis were independent risk factors for lymphatic metastasis (p = 0.001 and 0.009, respectively). We also found a better survival rate in patients with koilocytosis and without lymphovascular embolization (p = 0.001 and 0.005, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Lymphovascular embolization and absent koilocytosis were independent prognostic factors for the risk of lymphatic metastasis. Patients with koilocytosis and without lymphovascular embolization had better 5-year survival.
