title: Bladder carcinoma presenting as a solitary bony metastasis.
abstract: Although bony involvement by transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder occurs frequently, its presentation as a symptomatic solitary bony metastasis is rare. Furthermore, presentation as a solitary distal metastasis with osteolytic and osteoblastic components is almost a novelty. We present such a case, which is additionally unusual in that the primary lesion in the bladder and the metastasis were resectable.
