Volume 16, Number 1Case ReviewMetastatic Urethral Melanoma: Case Report and Review of the LiteratureLuiz Ronaldo AlbertiBruno Moraes VasconcelosRafaela Saint-Clair Pimentel Mafra De OliveiraMelanoma is a cancer that originates from melanocytes, is predominant in adults with white skin, represents 4% of skin cancers, and has high possibility of forming metastasis. This review reports on the case of a young man, age 36 years, previously diagnosed with melanoma. The patient complained of obstructive urinary symptoms and, while he was undergoing a cystoscopy, it was discovered that he had a lesion corresponding with metastatic melanoma of the prostatic urethra, which occluded almost the entire urethra and resulted in blocked urinary flow. He underwent a transurethral resection of the prostate, followed by resection of the lesion. After the procedure, he had good urinary flow and is currently on follow-up.
