Malignant priapism secondary to penile metastases is a rare condition. This term was originally used by Peacock in 1938 to describe a condition of painful induration and erection of the penis due to metastatic infiltration by a neoplasm. In the current literature there are 512 case reports. The primary tumor sites are bladder, prostate and rectum. The treatment has only palliative intent and consists of local tumor excision, penectomy, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. We present one case of malignant priapism originated from prostate cancer, and two from urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. Different approaches in diagnosis and therapy were performed. The entire three patient reported a relief of the pain following the treatment, with an improvement of their quality of life, even though it was only temporary as a palliative. Malignant priapism is a rare medical emergency. Penile/pelvis magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan and corporal biopsies are considered an effective method of diagnosis of the primary organ site.

A less-invasive approach to the evaluation of papillary carcinoma in children and adolescents recently has been proposed, based on reports of the accuracy and reliability of fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in this population.1-4 Such confidence may be ill-founded, as the following clinical histories will illustrate. Functioning nodules, Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), and goiter-associated lymphadenopathy are unusual but significant presentations of papillary carcinoma in children and young adults, likely to be missed by the standard diagnostic approach in adults, which is reliant on FNAB, 123I scintiscans, or clinical response to suppressive doses of L-thyroxine (T4). CASE REPORTS Case 1 A thyroid nodule developed in a 12-year-old girl, first observed 1 month before evaluation in an endocrine clinic.
