Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Urethral diverticular carcinoma is an uncommon urologic malignancy.
  • This condition is predominantly observed in female patients.

Observation:

  • This study reviewed 59 cases of urethral diverticular carcinoma, including 6 new cases.
  • The review encompassed English literature on the subject.

Findings:

  • Adenocarcinoma is the most frequent histological type, surpassing transitional and squamous cell carcinomas combined.
  • Adenocarcinoma of the urethra demonstrates a more favorable prognosis compared to other cell types.

Implications:

  • Radical therapy is generally advised for urethral diverticular carcinoma.
  • Localized disease may permit a conservative management approach with diligent follow-up.
