Sumario:Cutaneous metastatic disease from bladder urothelial carcinoma is a rare but serious complication of advanced bladder cancer. It occurs when malignant cells from the primary bladder tumor spread to the skin. The most common sites for cutaneous metastases from bladder cancer are the abdomen, chest, and pelvis. We report a case of a 69-year-old patient who was diagnosed with infiltrative urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (pT2) and underwent a radical cystoprostatectomy. After one year, the patient developed two ulcerative-bourgeous lesions, which were later identified as cutaneous metastases from bladder urothelial carcinoma through histological examination. Unfortunately, the patient passed away a few weeks later.
