Urothelial carcinoma within the prostatic utricle of an adult with hypospadias and Fanconi anemia

Year: 2019

Type: article

Abstract: Prostatic utricles are rare in the general population and are often otherwise unremarkable anatomic variants. These structures are contiguous with the prostatic urethra and are nevertheless susceptible to urothelial carcinoma. This case report discusses the first reported patient with Fanconi anemia with urothelial carcinoma within an enlarged prostatic utricle.
