Squamous cell carcinoma of the urethra: ultrasonographic findings.

ABSTRACT

Urethral carcinoma is a rare neoplasm and only recently MR imaging has been applied to evaluate these tumors. Ultrasonography has mainly been used in the evaluation of urethral strictures. In the present paper a patient with squamous cell carcinoma of the urethra is reported and findings on ultrasonograms are described. Ultrasonography depicted the intraluminal tumor, in contrast to retrograde urethrocystograms, which appeared inconspicuous.
