RESUMO
We present a case of aldosterone-secreting adrenal cortical carcinoma. The patient had an isolated elevation of aldosterone levels. This diagnosis should be suspected in patients first seen with hypertension and hypokalemia since this tumor may not always be considered in the differential diagnosis.

RESUMO
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.
