What is the urethra?

The urethra is a hollow tube that allows urine to pass through the bladder, the organ that stores urine until it is ready for release, and out of the body. For men, the urethra is about 8 inches long and passes through the prostate toward the end of the penis. For women, the urethra is about 1.5 inches long and opens just outside the vaginal opening.

Symptoms:

In the early stages, there may not be many symptoms. As the cancer grows, some patients may see urethral lumps and growth. Others may see pain and bleeding when urinating. When a tumor narrows or restricts the urethra, it can make it difficult to urinate or blood can flow through the urethra.

Causes:

The exact cause of urethral cancer is unknown. However, prolonged inflammation and infection can increase the risk. Many men with urethral cancer have previously been treated for urethral stricture or sexually transmitted infections. Many women with urethral cancer have previously been treated for bulbourethral glands (mass), urethral diverticulum (outer sac), or chronic UTI. In men and women, human papillomavirus (HPV) is associated with urethral cancer.
