[Cancers of the penis and testicle: news in 2008].

Abstract

In the 2007 international conferences, a certain number of communications were devoted to the cancers of the male external genital organs. The most innovating studies were selected. In the pure testicular seminomas, radiotherapy was compared to carboplatin in adjuvant treatment. Active surveillance of stage Ia germinal tumors was evaluated. In penis cancer management, curietherapy in early-stage treatment was reported, and sentinel lymph node detection was covered in many studies.
