“…However, no association between HPV and LELC in the urinary system has been described (6). In this case, in situ hybridization (ISH) for EBV was negative, and tumor cells showed strong positivity for the p16 marker, a surrogate marker for HPV, thus suggesting that HPV may also be associated with LELC originating in the urinary tract, as is the case in all other locations outside the nasopharynx.…”

Urethral location is extremely rare with only one case described prior to this case report (8).…”
