Prostate and Bladder Metastases of Malignant Melanoma: Case Report

Journal Title: Üroonkoloji Bülteni - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 1

Abstract

Prostate or bladder metastases of malignant melanoma (MM) are rarely encountered in clinical practice. To our knowledge, coexistence of prostate and bladder metastasis of MM has not been reported to date. We present the case of a 58-year-old male who was diagnosed with MM of the umbilical skin 2.5 years earlier and who presented to us with intermittent painless macroscopic hematuria and lower urinary tract symptoms. The prostate and bladder lesions were removed as completely as possible by transurethral resection. Pathological examination demonstrated simultaneous prostate and bladder metastases of MM.
