Introduction: Case report of an eyelid metastasis from a bladder urothelial carcinoma.

Observation: A 71-year-old man presented with an eyelid metastasis. The patient had had a bladder carcinoma (pT1HG-2) resected 3 years before. Histologic patterns of bone and eyelid metastases were consistent with a high-grade urothelial carcinoma (pT1HG-2). In this case, eyelid metastasis was an incidental finding of end-stage disseminated metastatic spread of the tumor.

Conclusion: Eyelid metastases of the bladder are infrequent and associated with disseminated metastatic spread of the tumor.
