A unique case of mesonephric adenocarcinoma of urinary bladder

A unique case of mesonephric adenocarcinoma of urinary bladder

Mesonephric (Wolffian) remnants are relatively uncommon and incidentally noted lesions, predominantly in the gynecologic tract. Only a handful of cases have been reported in the prostate and periprostatic region. Similarly, mesonephric adenocarcinomas also have a predilection for the gynecologic tra...
