Abstract

Urothelial cancer is a common neoplasm and metastatic disease correlates with a poor prognosis. Isolated adrenal gland metastases of urothelial carcinoma are quite rare, and management options can decide a patient's prognosis. Herein we report the case of a 76-year-old man with a metachronous solitary adrenal metastasis from a bladder carcinoma, who underwent adrenalectomy as part of his treatment. Furthermore, we discuss the cases of solitary adrenal metastases of urothelial carcinoma available in the literature, to identify key features to direct appropriate treatment of this rare metastatic site of urothelial cancer and improve prognosis and survival. Still, further prospective studies are needed to design effective therapeutic strategies.
