Abstract
A previously well 43-yr-old man with congenital hypospadias presented with a fungating lesion of 2 mths duration and surrounding the ventral urethral opening. After biopsy showed this to be a squamous cell carc inoma, a definitive procedure of partial penile amputation and urethro plasty was performed. This is believed to be the first reported case o f squamous cell carcinoma of the distal urethra in conjunction with hy pospadias.
