title: Isolated penile metastasis from bladder carcinoma.
abstract: Metastases of the penis are uncommon, with only approximately 300 cases reported since 1870. In up to 70% of patients, the primary tumour is located in the urogenital tract. Furthermore, isolated metastases of the penis are exceptionally rare. We report a case of solitary squamous cell metastasis of the penis presenting with painful swelling initially thought to be inflammatory in origin. The CT and MR imaging findings are presented with a short review of the literature.
