    Abstract:
    Secondary tumours of the penis are rare; they most commonly arise from the prostate and the bladder. These lesions are often associated with disseminated malignancy and have a poor prognosis, with a 6-month mortality of up to 80% reported. Penile metastases have a variety of clinical manifestations including incidental penile nodules, cutaneous findings, urinary symptoms, pain and malignant priapism. Treatment options are mainly targeted at improving the patients' quality of life and are tailored to their clinical condition, but are primarily palliative. This study reports a case of a 92-year-old man with a presentation of glandular penile metastases from prostate adenocarcinoma treated conservatively.
