title: [Tumors of the female urethra: presentation of cases and review of the literature].
abstract: Female urethra tumours are rare conditions and so the series presented in the literature gathers just a few cases, and therefore is difficult to reach a conclusion with regard to the definite treatment to be adopted in each case. It appears to be certain that even histologically malignant forms of this disease can be cured in the earlier stages. The most representative cases presented in our experience are analyzed and an overall review of the literature is made aiming to examine the experience of various authors with regard to the diagnosis and treatment of the injuries.
