“…Approximately 25% -60% of patients with penile cancer have phimosis (Lawindy et al, 2011). Precancerous lesions are found in an additional 15% to 20% of patients with phimosis (Pow Sang et al, 2002). Thus, phimosis is considered one of the strongest risk factors for penile cancer.…”

“…There is some controversy about the current classification, especially within the glans, which is the site of the majority of tumours [13] (Figure 4). It was noted in an early ultrasound study that the tunica albuginea in the glans becomes difficult to see and blends with subepithelial connective tissue [4].…”

ABSTRACT. MRI of the penis is an expensive test that is not always superior to clinical examination or ultrasound. However, it shows many of the important structures, and in particular the combination of tumescence from intracavernosal alprostadil, and highresolution T 2 sequences show the glans, corpora and the tunica albuginea well. In this paper we summarise the radiological anatomy and discuss the indications for MRI. For penile cancer, it may be useful in cases where the local stage is not apparent clinically. In priapism, it is an emerging technique for assessing corporal viability, and in fracture it can in most cases make the diagnosis and locate the injury. In some cases of penile fibrosis and Peyronie's disease, it may aid surgical planning, and in complex pelvic fracture may replace or augment conventional urethrography. It is an excellent investigation for the malfunctioning penile prosthesis.

“…When the nodes are palpable, management usually consists of 4-6 weeks of antibiotics commencing after the primary lesion has been treated (19). Almost half of suspicious lymph nodes palpated during the initial presentation are enlarged due to inflammatory changes; however, those that become palpable during later surveillance are malignant in 70 to 100% of cases (16,20).…”

Purpose: The management of penile cancer has evolved as less invasive techniques are applied in the treatment of the primary tumor and inguinal lymph nodes. Materials and Methods: Herein we review the literature focusing on advances in the preservation of the phallus as well as less morbid procedures to evaluate and treat the groins. Results: Promising imaging modalities for staging are discussed. New techniques are described and tables provided for penile preservation. We also review the contemporary morbidity of modified surgical forms for evaluation of the inguinal nodes. Conclusions: Advances in surgical technique have made phallic preservation possible in a greater number of primary penile cancers. The groins can be evaluated for metastasis with greater accuracy through new radiologic means as well as with less morbid modified surgical techniques.
