Abstract

We report a rare case of seminal vesicle malignancy (primitive neuro ectodermal tumor) in a 40-year-old male patient. He was treated with enbloc resection of the tumor and ureteric reimplantation. In view of the rarity of this entity, management of these tumors should be individualized.

Keywords: Seminal vesicle malignancy; primary tumors of genitourinary tract; primitive neuro ectodermal tumor
