Isolated cerebellar metastasis in a patient with organ-confined, lymph node negative bladder cancer.
The majority of bladder cancer patients who develop brain metastasis have widely disseminated disease. Isolated cerebellar metastasis in patients with transional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder is a rare event. We present the case of a patient with organ-confined bladder cancer who developed isolated cerebellar metastasis.
