[Villous polyp of the urethra].
Villous polyps of the urethra are rare. This condition can be seen more frequently in patients aged 30-40 years. Hematuria is usually the major symptom. Generally, the polyps are localized in or around the verumontanum and do not recur after TUR or electrocoagulation. A case of villous polyp of the verumontanum is described in a patient who presented with symptoms and signs of obstructive micturition. The patient continues to be asymptomatic 6 months following treatment by electrocoagulation.
