Extensive cutaneous metastases from urinary bladder carcinoma

Herein we present an update of the literature and a report of a recent case of cutaneous metastases from transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder. Cutaneous metastases from bladder carcinoma more commonly affect middle-aged or elderly men and generally herald a rapid demise. Our case is unusual because of the rather extensive area of skin involvement, rapidity of development, and occurrence in a woman.
