Penile metastasis from invasive bladder cancer.
OBJECTIVE
To present the rare case of penile metastasis from bladder cancer.


METHODS
A 68-year-old man with invasive bladder cancer disseminated in penile shaft and the pelvic lymph nodes is presented. The patient underwent cystoprostatectomy, total penectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy.


RESULTS
Ten months after surgery, patient is in complete remission.
