Endovesical ultrasonography of urachal carcinoma.
We describe a case of adenocarcinoma of the urachus in which endovesical ultrasonography was used preoperatively to assess accurately the nature and extent of the neoplasm. Endovesical ultrasonography is a simple and safe technique that may be of value in the routine evaluation of invasive bladder neoplasms.
