    Abstract

    We report a case of a 40-year-old man who had presented with a spontaneous suprapubic urinary leak from a well-healed suprapubic cystostomy tract scar, 20 years following a successful scrotal tube substitution urethroplasty done for a post-traumatic urethral stricture. Preoperative contrast studies suggested a recurrent bulbomembranous urethral stricture. Excision biopsy of the suprapubic fistulous tract revealed scar cancer infiltrating the bladder wall. Of 3 similar cases reported in the past, only 1 had bladder involvement. Ours is the second such case with bladder involvement. Copyright (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Inc.
