Popis: A very rare case of primary adenocarcinoma arising from a paraurethral cyst in a 63-year-old woman is reported. Initially she was diagnosed as having a simple paraurethral cyst because of absent communication with the urethra. The resected paraurethral cyst was histologically associated with adenocarcinoma. We also performed chemotherapy composed of methotrexate, vinblastine, Adriamycin and cisplatin because of lymph node metastasis. Our treatment, however, was not effective and the patient died of systemic metastases.
