We present here a case report of a 40-year old male with adenocarcinoma of the bladder and solitary metastasis to the choroid plexus of the right lateral ventricle. This is the first such report of such a metastasis in association with bladder carcinoma. Systemic metastases frequently occur in patients with carcinoma of the bladder but involvement of central nervous system is relatively uncommon: less than 1% of patients with carcinoma of the bladder present an intracerebral metastasis. In the majority of cases there are either multiple CNS metastases or other distant metastases. A few cases present with solitary metastases to the CNS without evidence of recurrent or disseminated disease.
我们在此报告一例40岁男性,患有膀胱腺癌并伴有右侧脑室脉络丛孤立转移。这是首例关于这种与膀胱癌相关转移的报告。全身性转移在膀胱癌患者中经常发生,但中枢神经系统受累相对少见:不到1%的膀胱癌患者出现脑内转移。在大多数情况下,存在多个中枢神经系统转移或其他远处转移。少数病例表现为中枢神经系统孤立转移,而无复发或播散性疾病的证据。
