摘要:
Introduction: Müllerian clear cell carcinoma of the male urethra is similar to that of the
female genital tract in terms of morphology and immunohistochemical expression but is rarely observed
in clinical practice.
Case Presentation: Here, we report the case of a 65-year-old man diagnosed with Müllerian clear
cell carcinoma who harboured a mutation in
RAD54L. This patient was diagnosed by electrocautery
and ultimately underwent prostatectomy. After a six-month follow-up period, no signs of
recurrence or additional malignancy were found. Based on our analysis of the available literature,
it appears that Müllerian clear cell carcinoma with
RAD54L mutation has not been reported until
now.
Conclusion: This case enhances our knowledge of the molecular biology of Müllerian clear cell
carcinoma of the male urethra, which will help clinicians select optimal treatment options for this
rare cancer in patients with specific driver mutations.
