We report the case of a 57-year-old man who presented with two local recurrences and metastatic dissemination of a papillary meningioma of the sphenoid 3 years after surgery. Treatment consisted in a combination of surgery for the local recurrence in the initial site, radiotherapy and chemotherapy for bone metastases. Evolution of the disease spread over 7.5 years. The literature relating metastatic meningiomas is reviewed; prognostic factors and main therapeutic protocols are discussed.

Carcinosarcoma (CS), also known as metaplastic breast carcinoma with mesenchymal differentiation, is one of the five distinct subtypes of metaplastic breast cancer. It is considered as a mixed, biphasic neoplasm consisting of a carcinomatous component combined with a malignant nonepithelial element of mesenchymal origin without an intermediate transition zone. Although cellular origin of this neoplasm remains controversial, most researchers declare that neoplastic cells derive from a cellular structure with potential biphasic differentiation.

Impaired bladder compliance secondary to congenital or acquired bladder dysfunction can lead to irreversible kidney damage. This is managed with surgical augmentation utilizing intestinal tissue, which can cause stone formation, infections, and malignant transformation. Co-seeded bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)/CD34+ hematopoietic stem cell (HSPC) scaffolds (PRS) have been successful in regenerating bladder tissue.
