EGUILUZ LUMBRERAS, Pablo et al. Malignant priapism and secondary bladder cancer. Arch. Esp. Urol. [online]. 2009, vol.62, n.3, pp.239-241. ISSN 0004-0614.
Objective: We report a rare case of malignant priapism secondary to transitional cell carcinoma. Methods: The patient with bladder cancer (pT4G3) presented with painful penile erection. Corpora cavernosa biopsy was done. Results: The pathologic diagnosis was penile metastasis of transitional cell carcinoma. Conclusions: Priapism secondary to penile metastasis of transitional cell carcinoma is rare and indicates advanced disease with a poor prognosis.
