Abstract

Abstract Case Report Penile squamous cell cancer (PSCC) is rare in the Western world, although higher in many developing countries. This has hindered comparative studies of therapeutic options, with ongoing uncertainty regarding best treatment options. However, greater centralisation of services in recent years is allowing some inroads into improving the management of these patients. Presentation with advanced inguinal lymphadenopathy has traditionally been associated with very poor prognosis. A multimodal approach has been advocated but benefits not yet proven in randomised series. We describe a case of PSCC presenting with a fixed nodal mass, treated with a multimodal approach, combining neo-adjuvant chemotherapy with surgery and then external beam radiotherapy (DXT) at contralateral relapse, resulting in long-term disease-free survival(>12 years) and good quality of life.
