Identifying the needs of penile cancer sufferers: A systematic review of the quality of life, psychosexual and psychosocial literature in penile cancer
BMC Urology, 08/11/09
Maddineni SB et al. – The treatment of penile cancer results in negative effects on well–being in up to 40% with psychiatric symptoms in approximately 50%. Up to two–thirds of patients report a reduction in sexual function. This study demonstrates that penile cancer sufferers can exhibit significant psychological dysfunction, yet no standardised tools or interventional pathways are available. Therefore, there is a need to identify and assess adequate tools to measure psychological and sexual dysfunction in this group of patients.
