In patients with penile squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs), lymphadenectomy can be curative and should be considered in cases deemed high risk for metastatic spread to regional lymph nodes. Management of patients without palpable lymphadenopathy remains controversial. Current guidelines for T1 penile SCCs based on previous studies have suggested that moderately differentiated tumors are at low risk for metastatic disease; however given our experience with such patients we sought to examine whether such tumors were truly observable or should be treated more aggressively.
