A 65-year-old man was admitted with penile tenderness and dysuria due to priapism. Enhanced computed tomography revealed metastatic tumors in the liver, lung, sacrum and lymph nodes. Advanced rectal cancer, detected by colonoscopy as a primary tumor, was treated with chemotherapy (FOLFOX4). Although the rectal cancer showed no change, five months of chemotherapy improveid the priapism, suggesting that chemotherapy can improve rare symptoms of rectal cancer.
一名65岁男性因阴茎异常勃起入院,伴有阴茎压痛和排尿困难。增强计算机断层扫描显示肝脏、肺部、骶骨和淋巴结有转移瘤。经结肠镜检查发现原发性肿瘤为晚期直肠癌,接受了化疗(FOLFOX4方案)。尽管直肠癌无变化,但五个月的化疗改善了阴茎异常勃起,提示化疗可改善直肠癌的罕见症状。
