  • Title: Chronically Infected Urachal Remnant Mimicking Tumor With Peritoneal Carcinomatosis.
    Author: Froehner M, Jahn S, Plodeck V, Laniado M, Wirth MP.
    Journal: Urology; 2018 Jun; 116():e3-e4. PubMed ID: 29551620.
    Abstract:
    A 51-year-old male patient presented with lower abdominal pain persisting since about 1 year. Abdominal computed tomography scan showed a solid tumor interpreted as urachal carcinoma with peritoneal carcinomatosis. Histopathological examination revealed urachal abscess. Awareness of clinical signs and imaging findings of this rare but characteristic condition may avoid emotional distress of patients associated with erroneous suspicion of malignancy.
