甲状腺転移を伴つた膀胱癌の1例

TRANSITIONAL CELL CARCINOMA OF THE URINARY BLADDER ASSOCIATED WITH METASTASIS TO THE THYROID GLAND

Ⅰ．緒言

　甲状腺への腫瘍転移は比較的稀で，とくに膀胱癌からの甲状腺転移はごくまれなものとされてきた。われわれは膀胱に原発した移行上皮癌が剖検によつて甲状腺に転移したことを明らかにできた1例を経験したのでこの症例を報告し，あわせて続発性甲状腺腫瘍に関する文献的考察を行なつた。

A case of bladder carcinoma with metastatic carcinoma of thyroid gland, which was discovered by autopsy in a 63-year-old male, was reported, and the literature on metastatic tumor of thyroid gland was reviewed.

Patient visited our clinic with the chief complaint of gross hematuria and partial cystectomy was performed for an index-finger-tip sized, pedunculated bladder tumor.
