Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the erectile function in patients who underwent partial penectomy and identify factors associated with penile functional status. MATERIALS AND METHODS We identified patients who underwent partial penectomy due to penile cancer between 2009 and 2014. Clinical and pathological characteristics included patient age at the time of diagnosis, obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, smoking, metabolic syndrome, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) status, penile shaft length, tumor size, primary tumor stage (pT), clinical nodal status, and local recurrence. Erectile function was assessed prospectively with the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) at least 3 months after partial penectomy. RESULTS A total of 81 patients met analysis criteria. At the diagnosis, the median age was 62 years (range from 30 to 88). Median follow-up was 17 months (IQR 7-36). Of total patients, 37 (45%) had T2 or higher disease. Clinically positive nodes were present in 16 (20%) patients and seven (8.6%) developed local recurrence. Fifty patients (62%) had erectile dysfunction (ED) after partial penectomy, 30% had moderate or severe erectile dysfunction scores. Patients with ED versus without ED were similar in baseline characteristics except for age, penile shaft length, and presence of inguinal adenopathy (p <0.05). Multivariate analysis using logistic regression confirmed that older patients, shorter penile shaft length, and clinically positive lymph node were significantly associated with ED. CONCLUSION Partial penectomy due to penile cancer provides adequate local control of the disease, however, proper counselling is important especially in relation to ED consequences. Preservation of penile length yields to more optimal erectile recovery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Penectomy as the traditional surgical treatment of penile cancer has substantial adverse functional and psychological impact. Glansectomy with split-thickness skin graft (STSG) reconstruction aims to provide curative resection while maximizing functional outcomes and minimizing psychological harm. We describe our outcomes of glansectomy with STSG reconstruction for penile cancer in a Canadian setting. METHODS We identified patients undergoing glansectomy with STSG genital reconstruction for squamous cell carcinoma of the penis from July 2006 to July 2019 at a single center. Patients undergoing glansectomy for reasons other than penile cancer were excluded. We collected clinical and pathological data, including patient demographics, 90-day complications, positive margin rate, local recurrence rate, disease-specific survival, and functional outcomes. Descriptive statistics were used to characterize our cohort and to examine outcomes. RESULTS Twelve men met study criteria with a median age of 62 years. Seven patients had failed prior treatment. The 90-day complication rate (Clavien >2) was 0% and graft take was excellent in all cases. The positive margins rate was 16.7% (n=2). Local recurrence occurred in two patients (16.7%), one of whom underwent a repeat organ-sparing surgery for salvage, while the other underwent radical penectomy for high-risk pathological features. Disease-free survival at a median followup of 14 months was 91.7% (11/12). Standing voiding and erectile function, as well as satisfactory cosmesis, were preserved in all patients. CONCLUSIONS Glansectomy with STSG reconstruction is a safe and effective treatment for men with localized penile cancer with simultaneous preservation of cosmesis, as well as urinary and sexual function.

Eur J Surg Oncol 2018; 44:1425-1431. [PMID: 29656798 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2018.03.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2018] [Revised: 03/13/2018] [Accepted: 03/26/2018] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Till date, there have been few reports of comparative studies on the outcomes of these different treatment modalities. In this study, we have aimed to comparatively evaluate the quality-of-life parameters, including sexual function, urinary function, and health-related quality of life (HRQOL), in patients with early stage penile cancers who underwent two different organ-sparing surgeries. MATERIAL AND METHODS From March 2012 to March 2015, we enrolled 15 patients with early stage penile cancers who underwent either wide local excision or partial penectomy as organ-sparing surgical treatments. We assessed their sexual and urinary functions and their HRQOL, using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-15), Self-Esteem and Relationship (SEAR), and Erectile Dysfunction Inventory of Treatment Satisfaction (EDITS) questionnaires and urodynamic determinations, and comparatively analyzed the outcomes of these patients who underwent either type of surgery. RESULTS All patients who underwent these two types of surgeries experienced satisfactory outcomes. The patients who underwent wide local excision performed relatively better, in terms of their sexual functions, urinary functions, and HRQOL, but no statistically significant differences were observed in the data collected via the IIEF-15, SEAR, EDITS, and EORTC-QLQ-C30 questionnaires and urodynamic determinations (p > 0.05), except in the data corresponding to the orgasmic function (p = 0.033). CONCLUSION Both types of organ-sparing surgeries assessed in this study achieved good outcomes, in terms of the aesthetics, sexual functions, urinary functions, and HRQOL in patients, without compromising the therapeutic effects of these surgeries. However, the observed decreases in orgasmic function will need to be addressed further.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to analyze contemporary trends and predictors in the use of organ-sparing treatment (OST) for low-stage invasive penile tumors as well as to ascertain its impact on overall mortality (OM) in those with high-risk (pT2) disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS The National Cancer Data Base was queried for patients with clinically nonmetastatic penile cancer and available pathologic tumor (pT) and treatment data from 1998 to 2012. Independent predictors for performance of OST were analyzed. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression was used to identify factors of OM in a subset of patients with pT2 disease. RESULTS A total of 4231 patients with ≤ pT2cN0cM0 primary penile cancer were identified over a median follow-up of 39.6 months. Approximately 49% of patients received OST over the study period (P = .009). Older age, Hispanic ethnicity, urban counties, academic facilities, and pT2 disease were negative predictors for OST (all P < .05), whereas grade and years of diagnosis where associated with increased performance (P < .01). In subgroup analysis of pT2 patients, older age, black race, comorbidity, node status, and grade were associated with higher OM (all P < .05). When compared with radical penectomy, partial penectomy was associated with decreased OM (hazard ratio, 0.67; 95% confidence interval, 0.52-0.87; P = .002), whereas organ-sparing did not affect survival (hazard ratio, 0.83; 95% confidence interval, 0.52-1.31; P = .419) in these patients. CONCLUSION Ethnic and socioeconomic differences exist in the local management of penile tumors. No impact on OM was observed for those with high-risk cases treated with organ-sparing at intermediate follow-up. More studies are needed to evaluate oncologic efficacy of organ-sparing in carefully selected invasive penile tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We analyzed the trends in presentation of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the penis and determined the socioeconomic predictors for locally advanced (cT3-cT4) disease in the United States. PATIENT AND METHODS The National Cancer Database was queried for patients with clinically nonmetastatic penile SCC and staging available from 1998 to 2012. Temporal trends per tumor stage were evaluated, and a multivariable logistic regression model was used to identify predictors for advanced presentation during the study period. RESULTS A total of 5767 patients with stage ≤ T1-T2 (n = 5423) and T3-T4 (n = 344) disease were identified. Increasing trends were noted in all stages of penile SCC with a greater proportion of advanced cases over time (P = .001). Significant predictors of advanced presentation were age > 55 years, the presence of comorbidities, and Medicaid or no insurance (P < .05 for all). CONCLUSION More penile SCC is being detected in the United States. Our results have demonstrated older age, presence of comorbidities, and Medicaid or no insurance as potential barriers to early access of care in the male population. Understanding the current socioeconomic gaps could help guide targeted interventions in vulnerable populations.
