Penile Cancer

What is Penile Cancer?

Penile cancer is a rare type of cancer that occurs on the skin or within the tissues of the penis. It most commonly begins in the squamous cells of the skin, and early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes.

Causes of Penile Cancer:

  • HPV Infection: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a significant risk factor for penile cancer.
  • Poor Hygiene: Lack of proper hygiene, especially for uncircumcised men, can increase the risk.
  • Smoking: Smoking is linked to a higher risk due to the impact on the body’s immune system.
  • Phimosis: The inability to retract the foreskin can lead to infections, increasing cancer risk.
  • Age: More common in men over 50, though it can affect younger men in rare cases.

Symptoms of Penile Cancer:

  • A growth or sore on the penis, usually on the glans or foreskin
  • Changes in skin color or thickness on the penis
  • Foul-smelling discharge under the foreskin
  • Bleeding from the penis or foreskin area
  • Swelling or lumps in the groin area

Treatment Options:

  • Topical Medications: For very early-stage penile cancer, medicated creams may be applied.
  • Surgery: Options include partial or complete removal of affected tissue, laser surgery, or circumcision if cancer is limited to the foreskin.
  • Radiation Therapy: Often used for cases where surgery alone may not be sufficient.
  • Chemotherapy: Used in advanced stages or combined with other treatments.
