    Uploaded by

    Princess Gutierrez Rosita
    This case study describes a 60-year-old uncircumcised Filipino man admitted to the hospital with penile cancer. Penile cancer originates in the inner foreskin and glans of the penis. While the exact cause is unclear, HPV is an important factor. If not treated early, penile cancer can spread and make surgery more difficult. The patient presented with blisters and itching on his penis and was diagnosed with penile ulceration. He had no significant family medical history and his only prior hospitalizations were for diarrhea, pneumonia, UTI, and gonorrhea.

    CASE STUDY IN PENILE CANCER

    Penile cancer is a relatively rare squamous cell

    carcinoma. It usually originates in the epithelium of the inner prepuce and glans. There is a tendency for early signs to be ignored so that they often present late and conservative surgery is impossible. The psychological impact of the disease is highly significant. The cause of penile squamous cell carcinoma is unclear but human papillomavirus (HPV) appears to be an important causative factor.

    Cancer begins when normal cells change and grow

    uncontrollably, forming a mass called a tumor. A tumor can be benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous, meaning it can spread to other parts of the body). Penile cancer is a rare form of cancer that occurs mostly in uncircumcised men (men who have a foreskin, the piece of skin covering the head of their penis). Circumcision is the removal of the foreskin and may reduce the risk of penile cancer.

    ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY

    The penis is the external male sexual organ, as well as part of the urinary system. It contains several types of tissue, including skin, nerves, smooth muscle, and blood vessels.
    The main part of the penis is known as the shaft, and the head of the penis is called the glans. At birth, the glans is covered by a piece of skin called the foreskin, or prepuce. The foreskin is often removed in infant boys in an operation called a circumcision. Inside the penis are 3 chambers that contain a soft, spongy network of blood vessels. Two of these cylinder-shaped chambers, known as the corpora cavernosa, lie on either side of the upper part of the penis. The third lies below them and is known as the corpus spongiosum. This chamber widens at its end to form the glans. The corpus spongiosum surrounds the urethra, a thin tube that starts at the bladder and runs through the penis. Urine and semen travel through the urethra and leave the body through an opening in the glans of the penis, called the meatus.
