Atypical Evolution of Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Male Urethra: A Rare Case Report
Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 10
Abstract
Abstract:Squamous cell carcinoma of the male urethra is an exceptional tumor. All types tumors of the urethra representing less than 1% of urinary tract tumors. The prognosis remains unfavorable. We report the ninth case observed which manifested by a transtumoral spontaneous breaking of squamous cell carcinoma of the urethra in a patient aged 58 years-old. He was treated by external irradiation associated with chemotherapy, and died after progression of the disease. The spontaneous breaking of tumor of the urethra is an exceptional discovery testifying to a local evolution unfavorable, making these tumors difficult to operate. However, current hope lies in therapeutic protocols combining radio-chemotherapy. Keywords:urethra, squamous cell carcinoma, breaking, radiotherapy, chimiotherapy
