To prove diagnostic accuracy of PET/CT in all cancer penis patients having groin involvement clinically. If we can prove diagnostic accuracy of the pelvic lymph node involvement, then we can avoid pelvic surgery which will be reduce complications associated with surgery.

18F-FDG-PET/CT for detection of pelvic nodal involvement in inguinal node positive penile carcinoma - A prospective diagnostic accuracy study.
