Abstract
Carcinoma penis is quite common in our country .Though in decreasing trends, its racial, cultural, socioeconomic factors plays role in its etiology. The aims of my study are
To find out the incidence of cancer penis amongst male in proportion to other malignancies which affect them, to find out the age group in which the patients are commonly affected. To find out the influence of the prognostic factors .On the long term survival, to analyze the treatment given and the recurrence rate and the time of recurrence after primary management of cancer is being made.
Materials and Method: This study included biopsy proven 30 cases of carcinoma penis.
Results: The commonest site of distribution in carcinoma penis is Glans. Ulcero proliferative lesion was the commonest presentation in carcinoma penis. The majority of cases were of Squamous cell carcinoma .The average interval between the onset of disease and the presentation is 8.2 months.
Conclusion: The custom of early Neonatal circumsion must be adopted as a prophylactic measure, particularly those with phimosis.
Keywords: Carcinoma penis, stages ,nodal status, follow-up.
