Abstract

Metastatic bladder tumors constitute <5% of all bladder tumors, however metastatic malignant melanoma of the urinary bladder is very rare. The determination of the original focus of metastatic melanomas in urinary bladder is convenient in some cases, where the primary focus is already known from patients reported clinical history. In the presenting case, we report a case of a patient with ocular melanoma with bladder metastasis. To our knowledge, this is the first described case in Morocco. The patient underwent a cystoscopy with Trans Urethral Resection of the bladder, immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the tumor cells were positive for Melan-A.
