Metastatic tumor of the penis is uncommon. A 62-year-old man was admitted with the complaint of diffuse induration of the penile shaft. Biopsy material of the corpora cavernosa and supraclavicular lymphnode showed metastatic seminoma histopathologically, but no abnormal finding of bilateral testes was seen. Chest X-ray showed a mass at the upper anterior mediastinum. We considered the primary site of this malignant disease to be the mediastinum. The patient died of liver cirrhosis but permission of autopsy could not be obtained.

D004407 Dysgerminoma A malignant ovarian neoplasm, thought to be derived from primordial germ cells of the sexually undifferentiated embryonic gonad. It is the counterpart of the classical seminoma of the testis, to which it is both grossly and histologically identical. Dysgerminomas comprise 16% of all germ cell tumors but are rare before the age of 10, although nearly 50% occur before the age of 20. They are generally considered of low-grade malignancy but may spread if the tumor extends through its capsule and involves lymph nodes or blood vessels.
