Urethral mineralization.
Mineralizing urethral mass. This is strongly consistent with transitional cell carcinoma. Ultrasound-guided laser ablation is recommended.
The urinary bladder and trigone presented normal wall thicknesses with anechoic urine and normal tone.

No evidence of inflammatory or neoplastic changes were noted. The ureters were not visible and considered normal.
