Χαρακτηριστικά Επέκτασης

Local spread

  • In women: Local extension
    • Bladder neck, vagina, vulva
  • In men: Infiltrate via vascular spaces of corpus spongiosum and periurethral tissues
  • Anterior tumors may infiltrate to skin surface
  • Posterior/bulbomembranous tumors spread locally to perineum

Lymphatic metastases to regional nodes

  • Anterior urethral cancer nodal distribution
    • Superficial and deep inguinal nodes
    • Occasionally external iliac nodes
  • Posterior urethral cancer nodal distribution
  • Pelvic nodes
  • Usually indicative of metastatic disease
  • Palpable inguinal nodes occur in 20%
  • Female cancer often spreads systemically without regional nodal disease

Hematogenous spread uncommon except in

  • Primary transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of prostatic urethra
  • Advanced local disease

Κατηγοριοποίηση (Ιστολογικοί Τύποι)

  • Women: Location is anterior or entire
    • Anterior tumors exclusively in distal 1/3 of urethra
      • 46% of urethral tumors
      • Squamous cell carcinoma most common
    • Entire urethral tumors usually high grade and locally advanced
  • Men: Location is posterior or anterior
  • Posterior: Prostatic urethra (10%)
  • Posterior: Bulbomembranous urethra (60%)
  • Anterior: Penile urethra (30%)
