A clinical evaluation of 17 patients with penile cancer treated in our hospital from 1965 to 1991 were surveyed. They were between 34 and 74 years old with a mean age of 63.8 years. The average interval between the onset and the first visit was 22.8 months. Fourteen patients (83%) complained of the manifestation of a tumor and 14 patients (83%) were phimotic. The stage classified according to Jackson was Stage I for 6, Stage II for 6, Stage III for 4 and Stage IV for 1 patient. At the first visit, the inguinal lymph nodes were palpated in 8 patients and metastasis was confirmed in 5 (63%) of them. Surgical treatment was given to 15 patients (88%) (radical or partial penectomy was performed in most cases). Chemotherapy was given to 9 patients (60%) (main chemotherapeutic agent was bleomycin) and irradiation to 5 patients (30%). The overall 3-year survival rate was 71%, and 5-year survival rate was 56%. The 5-year survival rate in the low stage group (Stage I, II) was 75%, while that in the high stage group (Stage III, IV) was 0%, showing a significant difference.
