Long-term outcome of excisional organ sparing surgery for carcinoma of the penis.
Journal of Urology 2011 October
PURPOSE: We present our experience with penile sparing surgery for localized carcinoma in situ and T1 penile squamous cell carcinoma. We report outcomes and recommendations for a penile sparing approach.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 60 patients underwent penile sparing surgery for penile squamous cell carcinoma since 1995. Four patients without recurrence had less than 6 months of followup and were excluded from study. Data included disease stage, cellular differentiation, tumor site, penile sparing surgery type and recurrence information.
RESULTS: Followup was adequate in 28 patients with carcinoma in situ and in 28 with T1 disease. The overall recurrence rate was 21.4% with equal recurrences of carcinoma in situ and T1 tumors (each 21.4%). Mean ± SD time to recurrence was 4.28 ± 2.81 years (range 0.5 to 11). More than 25% of recurrences developed after 5 years. Mean followup in censored patients was 5.47 ± 3.88 years (maximum 16). There was no difference in time to recurrence after carcinoma in situ and T1 tumors (p = 0.738). T1 tumors on the glans carried a slightly higher risk of recurrence (p = 0.049). At 5 years 13.8% of patients at risk had late recurrence with a mean time to recurrence of 7.25 ± 2.62 years. No patients with carcinoma in situ showed invasion or metastasis. Two patients with T1 disease presented with metastasis and 3 had late metastasis.
CONCLUSIONS: Penile sparing surgery is a safe option for local control for appropriate carcinoma in situ and T1 squamous cell carcinoma of the penis. Carcinoma in situ recurrence may be re-treated with penile sparing surgery. T1 tumors that recur require more aggressive resection. Our data show significant late recurrences in patients and the need for long-term followup.
