Penile metastasis from lung cancer.

Abstract

A case of metastatic tumor of the penis from lung cancer is reported. The patient, who had received a right pneumonectomy 17 months previously for a squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, complained of urinary retention and painful erection of the penis. He underwent an emergency suprapubic cystostomy. Twenty days after the procedure, he died of disseminated lung carcinoma. The autopsy demonstrated massive metastasis to the penis from squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. Penile metastasis from lung cancer is a very rare condition and only 14 cases of this secondary carcinoma have been reported.
