A linfadenectomia inguinal modificada permite um estadiamento correto na maioria dos casos de carcinoma do pénis sem gânglios inguinais palpáveis. Atualmente, é possível reproduzir a técnica cirúrgica clássica por via vídeo-assistida, com resultados oncológicos semelhantes e menor taxa complicações.
 O artigo reporta caso tumor pénis, sujeito penectomia total (pT3NxMx), palpáveis, onde se realizou uma vídeo-assistida (LIMVA) bilateral, sendo descrita da LIMVA direita.
