Anterior Urethral Paraganglioma: An Extremely Rare Case Report and Literature Review.
Introduction: Urinary tract paragangliomas account for less than 1% of all paragangliomas and are most commonly seen in the bladder, with the prostate being the second most common localization. However, urethral paragangliomas are extremely rare.
Case presentation: A 52-year-old male patient admitted to the urology clinic with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), including poor and intermittent stream, straining, frequency, and nocturia. A pedunculated polypoid lesion, approximately 1 cm in size, was detected at the level of the bulbar urethra and was excised from its stalk using cold cup forceps. A diagnosis of paraganglioma was made on histopathological examination.
Conclusion: Anterior urethral paraganglioma can cause LUTS even if small due to urethral calibration. The recommended treatment method is endoscopic excision of the lesion. Paraganglioma should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of urethral lesions.
期刊介绍:
Concise but fully substantiated international reports of clinically oriented research into science and current management of urogenital disorders form the nucleus of original as well as basic research papers. These are supplemented by up-to-date reviews by international experts on the state-of-the-art of key topics of clinical urological practice. Essential topics receiving regular coverage include the introduction of new techniques and instrumentation as well as the evaluation of new functional tests and diagnostic methods. Special attention is given to advances in surgical techniques and clinical oncology. The regular publication of selected case reports represents the great variation in urological disease and illustrates treatment solutions in singular cases.
