  Urethral cancer is a rare malignancy that affects the urethra, the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the body's exterior. The presentation of urethral cancer varies between men and women due to differences in anatomy and physiology. The etiology of urethral cancer is not well understood, but it is known that patients with a history of bladder cancer have an increased risk. Three main types of urethral carcinomas are identified based on the type of cells in which they begin to grow: squamous, transitional, and adenocarcinoma. Chronic inflammation, infection, or irritation of the urethra is often present before the development of urethral cancer. Rapid turnover of the urethral mucosal cells can also predispose to dysplasia and neoplasia. The diagnosis of urethral cancer requires a high level of suspicion. The prognosis of urethral cancer depends on various factors, including the stage and grade of cancer and the patient's overall health. In the USA, the incidence ...

Three main types of urethral carcinomas are identified based on the type of cells in which they begin to grow: squamous cell carcinoma, transitional cell carcinoma, and adenocarcinoma. Chronic inflammation, infection, or irritation of the urethra is often present before the development of UC. Rapid turnover of the urethral mucosal cells can also predispose to dysplasia and neoplasia. The diagnosis of urethral cancer requires a high level of suspicion. Usually, it involves a combination of history and physical examination, laboratory evaluation, direct visualization, tissue diagnosis, and imaging to assess the local and systemic extent...
