title: [Inverted papilloma of the prostatic urethra].
abstract: The inverted papilloma is a rare urothelial tumor, and its localization at the prosthatic urethra is also exceptional. We present a case of inverted papilloma of the prostatic urethra in a 72 years-old male, with symptoms of urinary flow obstruction. The diagnose is obtained after urethrocistoscopy and transurethral resection at the same time. We discuss about the etiology, clinical presentation, diagnose and treatment of this rare tumor, making special attention to its malignancy ability.
