A Case Report on Stomach Cancer with Metastasis to Urinary Bladder

ABSTRACT

Carcinomas of the stomach can spread to adjacent structure by local extension or metastasize to lymph nodes, peritoneum and distant organs. However, the incidence of metastatic bladder cancer originated at the stomach is very rare. A fifty-five year-old man admitted complaining of epigastric pain for 2 months. A large ulceroinfiltrative lesion was seen in the low body, which was confirmed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma by histological examination. Abdomino- pelvic CT scan showed wall thickening at the greater curvature side of gastric body and urinary bladder. Urine cytology was negative. By transurethral resection of bladder, he was diagnosed as metastatic adenocarcinoma of the bladder. We report a case of stomach cancer with metastasis to urinry bladder.
