New Findings from Autonomous University Barcelona in the Area of Carcinomas Published (Simultaneous Bilateral Video-Endoscopic Inguinal Lymphadenectomy for Penile Carcinoma: Surgical Setting, Feasibility, Safety, and Preliminary Oncological...).

A study conducted at the Autonomous University Barcelona in Spain investigated the feasibility, safety, and preliminary oncological outcomes of simultaneous bilateral video-endoscopic inguinal lymphadenectomy (sB-VEIL) compared to consecutive bilateral VEIL (cB-VEIL) in patients with penile carcinoma (PeCa). The study found that sB-VEIL is a feasible and safe technique, showing similar oncological results and shorter operative time compared to cB-VEIL. The researchers suggest that patients with higher preoperative comorbidity burden or anesthesiological risk may benefit the most from this technique. The study provides valuable insights for the treatment of PeCa. [Extracted from the article]
