Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Inguinal lymph node dissection (ILND) is an essential component in the diagnosis, management, and treatment of penile cancer. Recent advances in minimally invasive surgery may play an important role in decreasing the adverse effects and complications of lymph node dissections. We present our technique utilizing a single-port (SP) robot assisted laparoscopic bilateral ILND in a patient with pT3N2Mx penile cancer s/p partial penectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy.
