Bladder cancer is one of the common urologic malignant diseases. Cutaneous metastasis of bladder cancer is rare, with only a few case reports. The pattern of metastasis from bladder cancer is not well described. We report a patient with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who developed skin metastases after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and robot-assisted laparoscopic radical cystoprostatectomy. Skin metastases were confirmed histopathologically by skin biopsy. This case reminds us of the need to consider the possibility of skin metastasis in the differential diagnosis of skin symptoms in patients with malignant diseases.
膀胱癌是常见的泌尿系统恶性疾病之一。膀胱癌的皮肤转移罕见,仅有少数病例报告。膀胱癌的转移模式尚无详尽描述。我们报告一例肌肉浸润性膀胱癌患者,该患者在新辅助化疗及机器人辅助腹腔镜根治性膀胱前列腺切除术后出现皮肤转移。皮肤活检经组织病理学证实为皮肤转移。该病例提醒我们,在对恶性疾病患者的皮肤症状进行鉴别诊断时,有必要考虑皮肤转移的可能性。
