Urethral caruncle: an unusual presentation of ovarian tumour.
Secondary female urethral cancer presenting as urethral caruncle is extremely rare. We report a primary ovarian adenocarcinoma in a 78-year-old female patient presented initially as a urethral caruncle. This case represents the first reported case in the world literature. The clinical features, investigations and pertinent literature are reviewed.
