The objective of the present study is to present the 2023 update of these guidelines and highlight the differences to the European Association of Urology (EAU) \/ American Association of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) guidelines on penile cancer.\r\nMaterial and Methods: A review of the literature and a comparison to the EAU \/ ASCO guideline on penile cancer was performed. Differences between the EAU \/ ASCO guidelines and the Swedish national guidelines are highlighted. \u00a0\r\nResults: The Swedish national guidelines on penile cancer emphasized the consultation of a national multidisciplinary treatment conference for all patients diagnosed with both primary and recurrent penile cancer or penile intraepithelial neoplasia (PeIN). Clinically lymph node negative patients diagnosed with &gt;pT1G1 are offered dynamic sentinel node biopsy (DSNB). In the EAU \/ ASCO guidelines the DSNB is optional for T1aG2 patients. Penile cancer surgery is centralized to two hospitals. Perioperative chemotherapy is offered to patients with \u2265N2. In the EAU \/ ASCO guidelines the use of perioperative chemotherapy for N2 patients is optional. A structured follow-up program is advocated to find recurrences at an early stage.\r\nConclusions: The Swedish national guidelines on penile cancer have been updated and compared to the EAU \/ ASCO guidelines. The national multidisciplinary treatment conference, centralization of surgery, the use of perioperative chemotherapy and a structured follow-up are the cornerstones of the Swedish national guidelines on penile cancer.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2340\/sju.v60.44463","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,19]],"date-time":"2025-09-19T12:28:03Z","timestamp":1758284883000},"page":"189-194","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["The Swedish national guidelines on penile cancer"],"prefix":"10.2340","volume":"60","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4033-5078","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Axel","family":"Gerdtsson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Eliya","family":"Abedi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gediminas","family":"Baseckas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"H\u00e5kan","family":"Brorson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Luiza","family":"Dorofte","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sofia","family":"Fall","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Emelie","family":"Filipsson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Johan","family":"Forssell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dominik","family":"Glombik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Diane","family":"Grelaud","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fatou","family":"Hellman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anna-Karin","family":"Jakobsson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kimia","family":"Kohestani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sinja","family":"Kristiansen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jenny","family":"Magnusson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kajsa","family":"Nilsson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Per","family":"Nordlund","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Erik","family":"Persson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Theodoros","family":"Psarias","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elisabeth","family":"Skeppner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elin","family":"Tr\u00e4g\u00e5rdh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Emma","family":"Ulvskog","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"\u00c5sa","family":"Warnolf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elisabeth","family":"\u00d6fverholm","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peter","family":"Kirrander","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1183","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"127168","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Brouwer OR, Albersen M, Parnham A, et al.
