The role of inguinal lymph node dissection in men with urethral squamous cell carcinoma

Primary urethral carcinoma (PUC) is a rare clinical entity and accounts for less than 1% of all genitourinary malignancies [1].

Data from several national and international cohorts have been published [1 –4], but important questions remain with regard to the optimal management of this condition.
