    Author: Rodrigues Netto N, de Almeida Claro JF, Balthazar Saldanha L.
    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 1990 Apr; 43(3):321-2. PubMed ID: 2369166.
    Abstract:
    Prostatic carcinoma metastasising to the penis is a rare occurrence with only 56 cases reported in the literature. The incidence of transitional cell carcinoma arising primarily in the prostate ranges from 1. 5 to 4%. These tumors have uniformly poor prognosis regardless the type of therapy. Most of the patients die within two to six moths and very few survive beyond twelve months. A case of transitional cell carcinoma of the prostate with penile metastases and priapism is presented.
