Rhinosporidiosis of Male Urethra Presented with Polypoidal Lesion Along with Uerethral Fistula Complicating the Treatment Option: Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
Rhinosporidiosis is a chronic granulomatous disease caused by a fungus, Rhinisporidium seeberi, a member of a group of novel aquatic parasites. Though the favoured site is the nasal mucosa, urethral involvement does rarely occur in this disease, only a few cases are reported in the literature and they are mostly from India. Here we report a case of urethral rhinosporidiosis, presenting as a protruding, polypoidal mass from the urethral orifice along with urethral fistula which after failure of medical treatment needs surgical unusual treatment option
