[Cutaneous metastases from transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder].
Two cases of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder with cutaneous metastases are reported. In one patient, multiple nodular metastatic lesions appeared simultaneously with urethral recurrence after total cystectomy. In another patient, diffuse inflammatory metastatic lesion was generated after radiotherapy for pelvic lymph nodes. The pathways of metastatic dissemination from the transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder are discussed.
