Abstract:
Cutaneous manifestation of cancers is a rare occurrence, even more so for bladder cancer, with a limited number of published reports. Iatrogenic implantation has been a major cause for it. With no clear distinction pattern from other common dermatological lesions, scattered occurrence, and poor survival; no definitive strategies are present for the management of these dermal manifestations. The present article describes a case of scalp lesion consistent with metastatic urothelial carcinoma along with a review of the literature.
