Urothelial Carcinoma of the Bladder With Primary Metastasis to the Brain: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Brain metastases are the most common type of brain tumor in adults, commonly arising from primary tumor sites of the lung, breast, skin (melanoma), colon, and kidney. Isolated central nervous system (CNS) metastasis arising from urothelial carcinoma (UC) is a rare presentation yielding a poor prognosis. A 71-year-old male patient with a history of urothelial carcinoma, treated one year prior with partial cystectomy and adjuvant gemcitabine and cisplatin (GC) therapy, presented with worsening neurological symptoms, including progressively worsening dizziness, shuffling gait, drifting, expressive aphasia, and confusion.

Dissemination Patterns and Short-Term Management of Multifocal Rosette-Forming Glioneuronal Tumors.

Background: Multifocal rosette-forming glioneuronal tumors (RGNTs) are challenging to manage. Gross total resection is often impossible, and data on adjunctive therapies are limited. We reviewed cases of multifocal RGNTs in the literature with special focus on dissemination patterns and management.

Intracranial metastasis from a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1: A case study and literature review.

Introduction: Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors (MPNSTs) are a rare type of soft tissue sarcoma. While these tumors often metastasize, intracranial metastases of MPNSTs have only been rarely noted.

Methods: Using Pubmed, Google Scholar, and Science Direct we conducted a systematic review of the literature to identify all reported cases of MPNSTs with metastases to the brain since the inception of these databases through January 2020.
