Abstract
We report two patients of metastatic retroperitoneal tumours from carcinoma of the bladder, one presenting with a retroperitoneal mass and the other with retroperitoneal fibrosis. Both cases had been previously treated by radiotherapy for invasive transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder and had no evident of recurrent tumour in the bladder during follow up or at the time of presentation with secondary tumours. Literature reviews revealed that urothelial tumours from the bladder rarely metastasize to the retroperitoneal space.
