[Squamous carcinoma of the male urethra, its presentation as a scrotal abscess].

OBJECTIVE
To report a case of urethral carcinoma presenting as scrotal abscess.


METHODS
A 53-year-old man presented with swelling, redness and pain in the scrotum. He had a history of urethral stricture and multiple scrotal abscesses. Incision and drainage were performed and the patient was treated with antibiotics without improvement. Incision and drainage were repeated and a biopsy of the tissue edges of the abscess were performed.


RESULTS
Histopathological analysis disclosed a squamous cell carcinoma arising from the urethra.


CONCLUSION
Patients with a history of urethral stricture should be followed closely. A scrotal biopsy should be performed in patients who do not improve with antibiotic therapy.
