Primary urethral cancers represent less than 1% of genitourinary malignancy. Given this is an uncommon disease, there are limited data to guide diagnostic and treatment strategies. Surgical extirpation remains the standard for most patients, with the addition of chemotherapy and radiation therapy in select patients. The surgical approach to urethral cancer depends largely on the location and extent of the tumor.
原发性尿道癌占泌尿生殖系统恶性肿瘤的比例不足 1%。由于这种疾病较为罕见,因此针对诊断和治疗策略的相关数据十分有限。对于大多数患者,手术切除仍然是标准治疗方法,对于部分患者可选择联合化疗和放疗。尿道癌的手术方法主要取决于肿瘤的位置和范围。
