Particular attention will be paid to patients suffering from urological tumors because the treatment followed by the patients would seem to expose them to a greater risk when they are infected with coronavirus, furthermore, from the literature it is clear that there may be a connection between sex hormones and ACE2 levels in the plasma. In fact, the estrons up-regulate the concentration of ACE2 in the circulation and this could be the reason why women would seem more protected than men once they contract the coronavirus infection
