A case of transitional cell carcinoma of the periurethral prostatic ducts received neoadjuvant chemotherapy consisting of methotrexate, vinblastine, doxorubicin, and cisplatin (M-VAC), which eradicated pelvic lymph node metastasis, followed by cystoprostatectomy. M-VAC therapy may be indicated for metastatic transitional cell carcinoma of the periurethral prostatic ducts.
