Transitional cell carcinoma with glandular differentiation metastatic to the inguinal lymph node from the urinary bladder

Abstract

Metastasis to the inguinal lymph nodes is a rare event in bladder cancer. In general, tumors at the metastatic foci are histologically similar to the primary. We report a metastatic adenocarcinoma in the inguinal lymph node from a primary, pure transitional cell carcinoma after radical cystectomy.
