Primary adenocarcinoma of cutaneous vesicostomy 40 years later: a rare case.
We present a case of adenocarcinoma developing at the vesicocutaneous edge of a vesicostomy, 40 years after it was created, in a patient who underwent cadaveric kidney transplant. Although transitional and squamous cell carcinoma of a vesicostomy have been reported, to our knowledge, the presence of adenocarcinoma at the vesicostomy edge has not been reported previously.
