Abstract
Metastasis to the pancreas is far less common than primary pancreatic tumors. Bladder cancer metastasis involving the pancreas is rarely reported. Here, we report a case of metastasis to the pancreas of urothelial cell origin, diagnosed via upper endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration and biopsy, and coupled with immunostaining. A high index of suspicion must be maintained for atypical metastatic locations of urothelial cell carcinoma, especially to the pancreas.Entities:
