Abstract
Secondary malignancy of the penis is an uncommon clinical entity. Because of the possibility of penile metastatic spread, this case report suggests that particular attention should be paid to physical examination of patients who undergo surgical procedures from OSCC, including those seemingly without metastatic disease. For the first time, our case provides evidence that TKTL1 expression in recurrent OSCC might be associated with tumor formation and metastasis. Antibodies, small molecules, COX-2 inhibitors, or a ketogenic diet might be promising for therapy of metastatic OSCC.
