Penile cancer: New nomogram accurately predicts risk of metastasis in men with clinically negative lymph nodes.

摘要

Researchers at the Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center in China have designed and tested a nomogram that outperforms the European Association of Urology (EAU) risk classification in identifying patients with penile cancer at high risk of occult lymph node metastasis. "We wanted to provide a risk-based approach for better selection of treatment options," says lead author Yao Zhu.
