Distant cutaneous metastases of prostate cancer: case 1 report

Abstract

Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in men but despite a high prevalence and incidence, there are few published cases of cutaneous metastases in literature. Skin lesions usually appear late and with a peculiar clinical presentation, which generally leads to delays in the suspicion of cutaneous metastasis of prostate cancer. In this paper, we present the case of a patient with nodular lesions at the glans level in which the histopathological study and the clinical history were critical in the diagnosis.
