A 77-year-old woman presented with metastatic urothelial carcinoma as an elbow mass. To our knowledge, this is only the third reported case of urothelial carcinoma metastasizing to the upper extremity. The presence of metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis of urothelial carcinoma is rare, with metastases to the upper extremities even less common.
