title: [Complete remission of stage III penile cancer by multidisciplinary treatment: report of a case].
abstract: A case of penile cancer with bilateral metastatic inguinal lymph nodes in a 68-year-old male is reported. We used combination chemotherapy with methotrexate, bleomycin, and cisplatin for 2 courses before ilioinguinal lymphadenectomy. The surgical specimen of ilioinguinal lymph nodes revealed no viable tumors. It is clear that this combination therapy was effective against metastatic penile cancer and the role of preoperative chemotherapy is becoming increasingly important in metastatic penile cancer. This chemotherapy and surgical approach deserves additional trial in patients with metastatic penile cancer.
