[Bladder metastasis of a stomach carcinoma. Presentation of a case].
Metastatic tumors account for a small percentage within bladder neoplastic pathology. The presence of signs of bladder neoplasm in a patient with malignancies in other location must aware us about its metastatic origin. One of the most frequent locations of the primary tumor is the stomach. Its evolution is always bad. We present a case of a woman who previously had undergone surgery for a gastric carcinoma, and later suffered a metastatic bladder affectation. We make special attention in the clinic presentation, very similar to the typical transitional cell carcinoma, its anatomopathological diagnosis after transurethral resection (T.U.R.), and its evolution. We make a brief revision of the bladder metastatic pathology.
