[Penile metastasis of a prostatic neoplasm. Apropos of a case. Long-term survival].

Penile metastases are uncommon lesions. They are most often secondary to a primary pelvic cancer (bladder, prostate, rectum). The appearance of a penile lesion may differ; priapism may or may not be present. The mode of dissemination is still controversial. The authors report one case and review the literature on penile metastases secondary to prostatic cancer. The essential point of their observations is the prolonged survival of their patient (7 years) whereas in the literature, the prognosis of these lesions is a rapidly fatal outcome.
