Abstract:
We are presenting a 65-year old patient with metastatic carcinoma of the penis which was discovered 19 months after abdomino-perineal resection for rectal cancer (Duke A). There was also metastasis in the perineum and one rib. Penile biopsy and cavernosography were carried out and established the metastatic nature. The patient declined further therapy and died 5 months after diagnosis.

Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...
