Epidemiology and Clinical Challenges in Early Diagnosis of Penis Cancer in Developing Countries

Penile cancer, though rare globally, has a higher incidence in several developing countries due to factors such as human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, poor hygiene, and certain cultural practices. This study aimed to improve early detection and treatment of penile cancer in developing countries, reduce the burden of disease, and develop strategies for raising education and awareness in these regions. The research method used was descriptive with a qualitative approach. Data collection was carried out using documentation techniques, and analysis was conducted using triangulation. The research has significant implications for public health policy and medical education in developing countries. The findings emphasize the importance of creating culturally sensitive health campaigns and improving access to early diagnostic tools, which could ultimately lead to earlier detection and improved patient outcomes.
