โœฆ Synopsis


Hypercalcemia is the most common metabolic disorder associated with malignancies. Squamous cell carcinoma of the penis is a tumor for which this abnormality has rarely been described. This report presents a case of hypercalcemia seen in a patient with advanced penile cancer. A chemotherapy regimen of intravenous cisplatin and fluorouracil caused regression of the primary tumor and normalization of the serum calcium. A literature review supported an association between squamous cell carcinoma of the penis and hypercalcemia.
