Background: Radiation therapy (RT) is an effective modality for the treatment of squamous cell carcinomas of the penis. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommends consideration of primary radiation for penile preservation, in surgically unresectable tumors, and as adjuvant therapy for positive margins, bulky groin nodes or pelvic nodes. We performed a population-based analysis to evaluate the usage of RT in penile cancer from 2007 to 2013. Read More

Introduction: With the increasing utilization of ectopic reservoir placement during multicomponent penile implant surgery, safety concerns have been raised about whether passing the reservoir through the floor of the inguinal canal consistently results in placement of the reservoir within the correct location.
Aim: To evaluate the safety, efficacy, and patient satisfaction associated with direct-vision, trans-fascial sub muscular reservoir placement in consecutive patients who had previously undergone radical cystectomy.
Methods: Perioperative data, complications, and follow up for the 12 cystectomy patients were evaluated using a comprehensive database of consecutive patients undergoing penile prosthesis placement at our center. Read More

Background: Many economic evaluations of human papillomavirus vaccination should ideally consider multiple disease outcomes, including anogenital warts, respiratory papillomatosis and non-cervical cancers (eg, anal, oropharyngeal, penile, vulvar and vaginal cancers). However, published economic evaluations largely relied on estimates from single studies or informal rapid literature reviews.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review of articles up to June 2016 to identify costs and utility estimates admissible for an economic evaluation from a single-payer healthcare provider's perspective. Read More

Herpes zoster (HZ) is an acute, cutaneous viral infection caused by the reactivation of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) (1). It is a frequent medical condition with an incidence rate of 2-3 cases per 1000 person/years in the general population and 7-10 cases per 1000 person/years after the age of 50 (1,2). Risk factors and triggers for reactivation of HZV have not yet been determined precisely, but are likely to include malignancies, immune deficiencies, solid organ and bone marrow transplant recipients, autoimmune diseases, psychological conditions, emotional stress, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, and other patients receiving immunosuppressive therapies (1,3).

Importance: In the last 4 decades, survival among patients with human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated cancers has improved, while the incidence of these cancers has increased among younger cohorts. Among survivors of HPV-associated cancers, persistent HPV infection may remain a risk factor for preventable HPV-associated second primary cancers (HPV-SPCs).
Objectives: To investigate the risk of HPV-SPCs among survivors of HPV-associated index cancers and to test the hypothesis that the HPV-SPC risk among these persons has increased over the last 4 decades. Read More

Background: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is common following radiation therapy (RT) for prostate cancer. Although the cause of RT-induced ED is unknown, damage to both the neuronal and vascular components supporting erections are often implicated.
Aim: To determine the effects of prostatic RT on erections, penile vascular physiology, and major pelvic ganglia (MPG) neuron growth and survival in a rat model. Read More

Lichen sclerosus (LSc) with penile cancer is found in about two thirds of specimens. It has been hypothesized that LSc represents a precancerous condition. To qualify as such, in addition to cytological atypia and similarity with the invasive tumor, a spatial correlation between LSc and neoplastic lesions needs to be demonstrated. Read More

Introduction: Nocturnal penile tumescence and rigidity (NPTR) monitoring with RigiScan was considered one of the most reliable methods to differentiate psychogenic erectile dysfunction (pED) from organic ED. However, its reliability has been questioned because of some limitations in the practice.
Aim: To present contemporary views on the role of NPTR monitoring in the diagnosis of pED. Read More

Introduction: This study quantified inter-observer contouring variations for multiple male pelvic structures, many of which are of emerging relevance for prostate cancer radiotherapy progression and toxicity response studies.
Methods: Five prostate cancer patient datasets (CT and T2-weighted MR) were distributed to 13 observers for contouring. CT structures contoured included the clinical target volume (CTV), seminal vesicles, rectum, colon, bowel bag, bladder and peri-rectal space (PRS). Read More

Purpose Of Review: To provide an overview of the current state of literature on organ-sparing approaches in penile cancer. Surgical as well as nonsurgical approaches can be adapted in the right setting, in an effort to spare patients from the burden of total or subtotal penectomy wherever possible. In this review, we focus on surgical approaches. Read More

Purpose Of Review: In penile cancer, lymphadenectomy can have staging and possibly therapeutic values. However, many physicians and patients are reluctant when it comes to inguinal lymph node dissection (ILND) due to high rate of surgical morbidities. In recent years, minimally invasive surgical approaches have shown success in reducing perioperative morbidities. Read More

Purpose Of Review: This review discusses new findings in penile cancer imaging in relation to the European Association of Urology and National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines.
Recent Findings: For imaging in penile cancer patients who are candidates for organ-sparing primary treatment, ultrasound with Doppler seems to be the method of choice in addition to physical examination. The sentinel node biopsy (SNB) procedure is used to detect small nodal metastases in clinically node-negative patients. Read More
