[A case of urothelial carcinoma associated with penile metastasis]

A 71-year-old man, who had been treated with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis due to chronic renal failure for 5 months, visited our hospital with a complaint of penile induration in April, 1998. He underwent wedge biopsy of the penis. On the day after the biopsy, he had an episode of gross hematuria. Cystoscopy revealed a papillary tumor that seemed to have arisen from the right ureteral orifice and another in the trigone. Computed tomographic scan revealed the bladder tumors and swelling of the internal iliac lymph nodes. The bladder tumors were resected transurethrally. The pathological diagnosis of the specimen from the penile induration was metastatic transitional cell carcinoma.
