Abstract
Primary amyloidosis is a rare disease. Only 10 cases of amyloid tumor of the urethra have been reported previously, with this being the eleventh case. Because of its rarity and because it stimulates carcinoma, biopsy is essential for definitive diagnosis and treatment. The literature is reviewed, and symptomatology, pathology, and management are discussed.Entities:
