title: Leiomyosarcoma of the bladder and subsequent urethral recurrence.
abstract: A case of leiomyosarcoma of the bladder with subsequent urethral recurrence is presented. Although it is well documented that urethral recurrence, or more likely new occurrence, is not uncommon following transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder, we believe that this is the first reported instance of a sarcoma of the bladder and urethral recurrence. Therefore, management of sarcoma of the bladder might include distal urethrectomy at the time of cystoprostatectomy.
