Abstract

Metastatic bone diseases are common in the advanced stage of numerous cancers, but rarely reported to be secondary from penile cancer. To date, there are only 9 cases of skeletal metastasis from penile cancer reported in literature worldwide. Herein, we report a rare case of the femoral neck metastasis secondary from penile carcinoma in a 35-year-old Chinese male. Based on the case study and more importantly, the literature review, we attempted to identify the clinical features of the metastatic bone diseases secondary from penile cancer.
