title: Urethral adenocarcinoma associated with urethral diverticulum in a patient with progressive voiding dysfunction.
abstract: Urethral adenocarcinoma associated with urethral diverticulum is a rare condition that requires a high index of suspicion to ensure early diagnosis and appropriate therapy. The development of urethral stenosis in a patient with a urethral diverticulum warrants early biopsy to rule out a malignant lesion.
