OBJECTIVE: Contribution of a case of penile metastasis in a patient with metastatic rectal carcinoma. METHODS: A 70-Year-old patient was referred to our consultation after the discovery of "penis indurations" having been diagnosed of rectal carcinoma 18 months before. After physical examination penile biopsies were carried out. RESULTS: The pathological results of the Glans biopsy was "rectal adenocarcinoma metastasis". CONCLUSIONS: Metastases in the penis are rare, and usually occur in the context of advanced oncological disease.
