Published: September 1989

Six patients with metastases to the penis are described. The main characteristics of the primary tumors are described, along with the treatments, the features of the metastasis, and the response to treatment. Although in one patient a survival of 5 years was obtained, metastasis to the penis is generally associated with a dismal prognosis. A brief commentary is made concerning mechanisms of metastases formation.
