    Author: Zaviacic M, Sidlo J, Borovský M.
    Journal: Virchows Arch A Pathol Anat Histopathol; 1993; 423(6):503-5. PubMed ID: 7507278.
    Abstract:
    An autopsy case of adenocarcinoma of Skene's paraurethral gland co-incident with renal cell carcinoma is described. The adenocarcinoma showed distinct prostate specific antigen and prostate specific acid phosphatase pointing to the equivalence between the male prostate and Skene's paraurethral glands and ducts. Skene's gland are the homologue of the prostate in females and tumours arising from them are immunohistochemically similar to male prostate carcinoma.
