Abstract
Two cases of localized urethral amyloidosis are reported. Data pertaining to 13 cases including our two cases are reviewed. The difficulty in preoperative differentiation of an amyloid tumor from a urethral malignancy is stressed. It is advisable to perform open or transurethral biopsy of the urethral tumor before deciding on radical surgery.Keywords
