Abstract:
Urachal adenocarcinoma is an unusual and aggressive form of bladder cancer that arises from urachus, a midline fibrous remnant of allantois. Experience with diagnosing them is limited and differentiating urachal adenocarcinoma from other urachal pathologies like infected urachal cysts may be difficult at times. Differentials of urachal anomalies can be narrowed down by proper assessment of patient demographics, clinical details, lesion morphology, and imaging findings. With this case series of five patients of urachal adenocarcinoma, we have tried describing their clinical manifestation and imaging appearances.
