Penile cancer: an overview.
Carcinoma of the penis affects 1 in 100,000 men per year in most developed countries. It accounts for less than 1% of adult malignancies in Europe and the USA. Survival is excellent if diagnosed early, but most men present up to 1 year after the initial lesion is noted. Unfortunately the treatment of metastatic disease is still disappointing.
