✦ Synopsis
Malignancy metastasis to the penis is an uncommon clinicopathological entity. We present two cases of malignant priapism following penile metastasis, in which the diagnosis was established by core needle biopsy of the corpus cavernosum. Primary tumors were urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder in one case (the patient having concomitant high-grade prostatic adenocarcinoma) and prostatic adenocarcinoma in the other. The clinicopathological features of 51 previously reported cases of penile metastasis in the recent literature are reviewed.
