An unusual cause of urethral stricture: urethral lymphangioma.
We report an unusual case of urethral narrowing which is caused by lymphangioma. The natural history of lymphangioma of the urethra is described. To our knowledge, lymphangioma of the urethra as a cause of urethral stricture has not been reported to date. Although lymphangioma of the urethra is a benign disease, it must be included among the causes of urethral stricture.
