Abstract EN

Thyroid cancer metastasis to the urinary bladder is a very rear condition.

To the authors’ knowledge there have been only 2 cases reported in the literature.

Herein a case is reported of a metastatic bladder tumor in a 73-year-old woman with history of thyroid and breast cancer.

Gross hematuria was the initial symptom of her metastatic disease.

Pathology of the resected mass revealed a follicular thyroid cancer metastasis.

This case illustrates that follicular carcinoma of the thyroid may have a variable presentation, including hematuria.
