Penile Cancer (PC) is a genital tumor, it has a high incidence in underdeveloped countries, about 26,000 new cases each year. In Brazil, PC represents 2% of the types of cancer that affect males, with a higher incidence in the north and northeast, which can reach up to 10%. The appearance of PC is multifactorial and may be related to inadequate hygiene, phimosis in adults, smoking, many sexual partners and HPV. In general, PC is painless, but it can present pain, bleeding and bad smell. The characteristic symptoms are vegetating lesions and ulcers or intraurethral lesions and patients are often unaware of their presence. This article presents an integrative literature review based on relevant information to demonstrate the incidence of PC in Brazil and its main characteristics, such as: risk factors, symptoms, prevention and treatment. In view of the data presented by the articles, it is observed that the north and northeast regions are really the places in the country with the highest incidence. It is also analyzed that PC more often affects men aged close to 60, but young people can also be affected by the disease. The presence of phimosis makes it difficult to clean the organ that generates secretions that are irritating to the skin, so CP is quite present in men with this condition.
