[Squamous cell carcinoma of the penis. Report of two cases in CHU of Conakry]

ABSTRACT

Based on two cases, the authors review the literature and discuss the difficulties of treatment of advanced-stage penile cancer. Two male circumcised patients [age32 and 46 years] presented with invasive penile carcinoma. In both patients, clinical examination revealed large, infected penile tumors with a healthy stump of less than 5 cm. Superficial inguinal adenopathy and HIV-positivity were found in one of the patients. Both patients were subjected to total penectomy with perineal urethrostomy and antibiotic treatment
