Mucinous adenocarcinoma of the male urethra.
We report a case of primary mucinous adenocarcinoma arising in the bulbomembranous urethra. The patient underwent radical cystectomy and total penectomy, followed by systemic chemotherapy. Metastases in lungs, skin, and lymph nodes (inguinal, iliac, para-aortic, and tracheobronchial) were found within 2 months after operation. We reviewed 37 cases of primary adenocarcinomas of the male urethra.
