Patient with penile metastasis from prostate cancer and survival over 5 years: A case report with longitudinal evaluation using computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging
Penile metastasis of malignant tumors is a very rare condition, often occurring as a part of systemic metastases, and is therefore associated with a poor prognosis. Although there have been reports of magnetic resonance imaging findings of penile metastasis, longitudinal imaging changes have not bee...

Sumario: | Penile metastasis of malignant tumors is a very rare condition, often occurring as a part of systemic metastases, and is therefore associated with a poor prognosis. Although there have been reports of magnetic resonance imaging findings of penile metastasis, longitudinal imaging changes have not been presented previously. We report a case of a 80-year-old male patient with penile metastasis from prostate adenocarcinoma. First magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated multiple penile nodules in the left corpus cavernosum corpora cavernosa, and these nodules were fused and across the septum of the penis, forming an enlarged, diffusely spreading mass on the follow-up exam 5 years later. In this case, a longitudinal evaluation of magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated the course of the extension of the rare penile metastasis. |
