| Popis: |
A 57-year-old male, with 1.5 cm tumor in his prepuce, was admitted to our institute in Feb. 1990. Circumcision and inguinal lymph node dissection was performed under the diagnosis of T1 disease of penile carcinoma. Pathological evaluation revealed well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). In April 1996, the patient revealed recurrence of the disease in the right inguinal lymph nodes and the lower abdomen, that was diagnosed to be poorly differentiated SCC. Laboratory findings showed elevation of serum calcium, parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) levels. Immunohistochemical staining confirmed production of PTHrP in the tumor tissue. This is the first case report of penile carcinoma that caused humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy in Japan. |
