RESUMO
Secondary or acquired phimosis usually occurs as part of a benign disease. We present a case of secondary phimosis caused by metastasis from a newly diagnosed oesophageal adenocarcinoma. The patient presented with clinical suspicion of infection in the preputial space, but histopathology revealed dilated lymphatic vessels with peripheral embolisms of epithelial tumour cells. This case report emphasizes the importance of establishing the cause of secondary phimosis by histopath-ological examination for possible malignancy.
