Multiple cutaneous metastases from carcinoma of the penis.
A 65-year-old male patient with carcinoma of the penis in association with bilateral inguinal lymphadenopathy and widespread cutaneous dissemination is described. Histopathological examination of the primary tumor and metastatic sites was suggestive of undifferentiated squamous cell carcinoma. The patient was administered combination chemothrapy using cisplatin, methotrexate, and bleomycin with a good response after three cycles. The case is unique because of the rapid onset and widespread nature of skin metastasis and rare presentation.
