title: Counseling after resection of the penis.
abstract: Surgery is the most effective means of controlling or curing cancer of the penis, but management of a patient with penile cancer encompasses more than excising the lesion. Anticipatory guidance and counseling are required components of total patient care. An integral part of counseling is psychotherapy, including marital and sex therapy. This comprehensive management program is best provided by a team of health care professionals including the family physician.
