Abstract:
Malignant urachal transformation is extremely rare, representing less than 1% of bladder tumors. Adenocarcinomas are the most frequent subtype. Mucinous urachal tumors are far less common. The most usual symptom of urachal tumors is hematuria due to erosion of the vesical dome. Standard treatment is surgery. This is a case report about a 63-year-old patient diagnosed with a urachal tumor and the conduct after diagnosis with follow-up until the patient’s death.
