Penile cancer

14 of 15Penile Cancer

Penile cancer is a malignant tumor that develops in the penis. Many cases are classified as squamous cell carcinoma.

One of the most consequential risk factors for this disease is poor personal hygiene. Circumcision performed in childhood facilitates better penile hygiene; consequently, in countries where circumcision is practiced for religious or cultural reasons, penile cancer is rare.

Other significant risk factors include having multiple sexual partners.
