Melanoma is the most aggressive malignant skin neoplasm with a high potential for metastasis and molecular genetic diversity.
A clinical case of a 35-year-old patient who admitted to the clinic with a diagnosis of melanoma of the skin on the back of pT2aN2M1b, Clarke invasion stage 3, BRAF (+), metastases to the brain, spine (Th8), who had previously undergone to complete excision of melanoma in 2023, is presented in the article. During examination, bladder tumor was detected. Histological study confirmed the presence of metastatic melanoma of the bladder.
Metastatic bladder tumor in patients with melanoma is a rare entity. Surgical treatment can be carried out to improve dysuria and the oncological outcomes, including those patients with synchronous metastases.
