Abstract
Transitional cell carcinoma of the urethra is a rare cancer with limited prognostic. We report a 75- year old female presented a hematuria and urinary incontinence. She had a history of hypertension, hysterectomy for uterine fibroma and dermatomyositis followed in dermatology. Radiological and histological examinations confirmed the diagnosis of a locally advanced transitional cell carcinoma of urethra. Cysto-urethrectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection was performed with acceptable oncological outcome at three-month follow-up without recurrence.
