Abstract

Introduction Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers which is capable of distant metastasis but Scrotal and penile metastasis are very unusual, and occasionally, the initial manifestation of a latent primary tumor is even rarer. Mechanisms of gastric metastasis have been suggested through different pathways. Case presentation In this study, we present a case in which a patient presented with painless swelling of the testicles and penis. The main was in the stomach. As far as we know, this is the first report of a scrotal and penile metastasis from gastric adenocarcinoma in Iran, which at the time of diagnosis of these metastases had not yet been diagnosed with gastric cancer. Conclusions Therefore, the tumors of the gastric can metastasize to the genital area through lymphatic vessels in a reversible pathway. However, Proper imaging studies can identify early sites. © 2021 Urology Research Center (URC).
