Muscle invasive bladder cancer culminating with leptomeningeal carcinomatosis.

Tom W Swallow1, Scott Mabbutt1, Charles R W Bell1.   

Abstract

This case reports highlights a rare metastatic manifestation of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. The onset of symptoms associated with meningeal irritation should be investigated. However, there is little consensus in the treatment of leptomeningeal carcinomatosis and it should be considered a poor prognostic sign with symptomatic management.
