Orbital Metastasis from Urothelial Carcinoma of the Urinary Bladder

Radical cystectomy with ileal conduit diversion remains the standard treatment for invasive bladder cancer. We report a patient with urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder and found metastasis to the orbit post radical cystectomy and ileal conduit diversion presenting as blurred vision and diag...

We report a patient with urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder and found metastasis to the orbit post radical cystectomy and ileal conduit diversion presenting as blurred vision and diagnosed by open biopsy. The orbit is an infrequent site of metastasis from bladder cancer cells. To the best of our knowledge, there are fewer than 10 case reports of orbital metastasis from urothelial carcinoma reported in the English medical literature.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1607551X09703808orbital metastasisurinary bladderurothelial carcinoma
