Description
Michael G Murray and co-authors report the case of a 69-year-old man from Jamaica whose stomach cancer spread to a rare site. Published in 2024, the case report starts with his first care for gastric adenocarcinoma, the form of stomach cancer he had. He had surgery to remove the tumor, then drug treatment and radiation.
Two years later he came back with pain during sex. Doctors found a nodule in the perineum and thickened skin on the penis, and tests showed the stomach cancer had spread there. Spread to the penile shaft is rare for any cancer. He was treated with more drugs and with salvage radiation, and was followed for 15 more months.
