[Glandectomy with cutaneous thigh graft]

Penile cancer is a neoplasm that predominantly affects males in the sixth decade of life, with an incidence of .3-1 per 100,000. Traditionally, the treatment of the primary lesion has consisted of total or partial amputation of the penis. However, the psychological and functional impact has influenced the development of preservation techniques We present 2males with lesions on the glans diagnosed by biopsy of squamous cell carcinoma. The patients underwent glandectomy and reconstruction with free thigh skin graft. The pathological anatomy was superficial squamous cell carcinoma. 6 months later the patients are free of disease and satisfied with the result of the intervention In our opinion, this technique enables an adequate cosmetic and functional result without affecting oncological control and without increasing morbidity or operative time.
