Abstract

Priapism, the persistent painful erection unrelated to sexual stimuli, is called malignant whenever the priapism is due to metastases. A new case of malignant priapism, secondary to metastases of prostatic carcinoma is presented. As usual, survival was poor--our patient died 3 months after diagnosis was established.
