title: Clinically isolated cerebellar metastasis of renal pelvic urothelial cancer.
abstract: A 70-year-old man who had undergone radical surgery for renal pelvic transitional cell carcinoma 9 months previously developed solitary cerebellar metastasis. Despite neurosurgical removal, the patient died and post-mortem pathological examination revealed microscopic metastatic lesions within microvessels of the lung. No other lesion, including local residual cancer, was detected.
