Cutaneous metastases of genitourinary malignancies are an extremely rare phenomenon. Few cases of skin metastasis from urothelial carcinoma of the bladder have been reported. We report a case of 71-year-old female with primary bladder transitional cell carcinoma who presented with the initial presentation of cutaneous skin lesions that covered the entire lower abdominal wall.
