title: Metastatic ulcerative penile Crohn's disease.
abstract: Metastatic Crohn's disease (MCD) is a cutaneous granulomatous reaction which affects patients with bowel disease in areas of the skin distant from the affected bowel. Penile involvement is a very uncommon observation. We report a case of penile ulcerative MCD in a 37-year-old man, which requested surgical management. The lesion developed during reactivation of the bowel disease.
