PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To review the most current literature on how the treatment for penile cancer can affect quality of life and to discuss current treatment options to overcome sexual dysfunction and ultimately improve patient wellbeing.
RECENT FINDINGS: Multiple medical and surgical therapies exist to address the high incidence of sexual dysfunction following penile cancer treatment. Advancements and refinements in the neophalloplasty, penile prosthesis, and penile lengthening procedures have opened the door to improved long-term outcomes. Additionally, studies continue to highlight the severe psychological toll that penile cancer treatment can have on patients. We explore the potential options for addressing the inherent psychologic effects of these treatments and highlight the need for further research in this domain. Although rare, it is important for all urologists to be familiar with the treatments and post-treatment sequelae of penile cancer. Penile cancer is associated with dramatic decline in quality of life and sexual function. Multiple medical and surgical therapies exist that addresses these concerns. Additionally, urologists must also be mindful of the psychologic component regarding surgical disfigurement and the decline in sexual function.
