The management of lymph nodes in penile cancer has always been a problem. Sentinel lymph node biopsy was supposed to solve this problem but has not been universally accepted due to conflicting results. We herein present a case of penile cancer with bilateral pathologically positive inguinal lymph nodes associated with concurrent negative sentinel lymph node biopsies. We discuss the possible reasons for this situation and suggest guidelines to study this issue.
