acid-phosphatase and Penile-Neoplasms

A case report of prostatic carcinoma metastasizing to the penis is presented. Review of the literature revealed only 54 cases reported to date. With survival rates ranging from two to six months, the prognosis is gloomy. The most commonly used method of treatment was local wide excision of the lesion.

Priapism, the persistent painful erection unrelated to sexual stimuli, is called malignant whenever the priapism is due to metastases. A new case of malignant priapism, secondary to metastases of prostatic carcinoma is presented. As usual, survival was poor--our patient died 3 months after diagnosis was established.
