Abstract

Primary neuroendocrine carcinomas are uncommon highly malignant tumors of the genitourinary tract, and they have a poor prognosis. We report here on a case of a primary neuroendocrine carcinoma of the urethra that developed after radical cystectomy and ileal conduit diversion for treating transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder.
